Unless there is a very good reason to tag every single object, consider 
whether it might be sufficient to have that kind of information in the 
changeset. Changesets can have any number of tags, so you could, for 
example, write the WMS URL and other metadata into the changeset. Let's 
try and move metadata away from the individual objects and into the 
changeset.

Information about the real world goes directly into OSM tags: What is 
this, how high is it, what colour does it have, when was it built, etc.

Information about that information goes into the changeset: Why do we 
known, how did we measure, who gave us permission, and what music did we 
hear during out editing session.

Bye
Frederik
