Gah. All the namespacing appears to be there to raise the barrier to entry, rather than solving any real problem. Once again, I will say that it is unnecessarily complicated. If I find a traction=something I will know that you are talking about railway traction because it is on a railway=something object. In the same way, I will know that capacity=100 means that it's a chairlift capacity because it's on a chairlift, not a car park, and any "piste:thing:capacity" is a waste of time. You are simply making the tagging extremely complicated to remember. Please, please, please stop with the namespacing. We have tens of thousands of volunteers who won't understand what it means, and it doesn't actually solve any real problems.
