A hazy sort-of-emerging along with this is wider recognition that a proto_park

Sounds like a good case for some lifecycle prefixes -- proposed:leisure=park or 
planned:leisure=park.

Excellent!  Yes, "lifecycle prefixes" are perfect for this.  My (careful, 
though I have "burned my fingers" using proposed before, and got spoken to by 
the DWG — the three of us had a nice lunch together — but that was years ago 
about a national mess I was cleaning up and we've straightened it out, as in 
WikiProject USBRS) experience with "proposed" is to use it on something which 
is "brought to fruition to, with or by public officials so responsible; clearly 
planned" at least and the funding is "programmed or likely to be."  That can 
get tricky, as sometimes funding lingers in limbo for a long time, like on 
California High Speed Rail (which I recently scaled back in OSM because our new 
Governor did).  But I certainly agree with your

Once park construction has begun, construction:leisure=park. And finally just 
leisure=park when it opens.

As clearly, construction only happens with funding.

Thank you for reminding us about lifecycle prefixes!

 I've seen kids on bikes go under fences and around things and treat "certain 
areas" just like an admittedly fully raw and completely undeveloped park, even 
though it isn't one.  Sometimes with respect, simply hiking around.  What is 
that?  Humans being human.  We should map those, accurately.

We have access=permissive, but I don't think a hole in a fence really
counts as "permissive." (I think de facto access to an area with no
fence/no signage/no enforcement *could* be called permissive.)

I, stevea, agree.  Thank you for your perspective and I hope it clarifies for 
others reading.

Other than that I can't think of any tags that would be applicable to
these sorts of situations. We tend to tag the regulations themselves,
not the extent to which they're adhered to. Certainly just calling it a
park because kids play there doesn't seem consistent with OSM standards.
We don't raise the speed limit in places where everyone speeds, or tag
bicycle=yes on ways where they're prohibited but frequently used.

No, I think leisure=playground aligns a bit more closely with "kids play here," 
though some people like snap-tight definitions, others consider things as much 
more elastic.  It's difficult to please everybody; semantics can be messy.  I'm 
glad we're better sharpening up leisure=park, it deserves more good discussion.
