I don’t have an issue with it at all! The original poster asked why the sudden interest in mapping farmland. In which I was curious about finding out as well. We have now established the reason.

I asked about the general feeling within the Irish OSM community (people subscribed to this list) on giving field's a name. It does not bother me either way. We are getting field boundary data and those users are getting experience mapping, therefore can only be a good thing. I do however support the use of another tag (as suggested by Tom) to record the names, but that's just personal feeling on the matter, I wont be losing any sleep over it!

I've added one or two names to fields myself and I don't see what the issue
is that our chap in Killyfoyle has with field names being added.
There are those of us that add reference numbers of streetlamps and post
boxes to OSM, this isn't much different and with the general attitude of
"tag everything, we'll migrate it if a more specific repository for this
info comes along" this is surely not an issue.
