I'd second this, it's how I've interpreted the wiki instructions. Of course, determining whether your average bit of woodland in the UK is landuse or natural is fun, given that pretty much all of it has been carefully managed at soem stage over the past few hundred years! Why do we care if it's mananged, and if it's a forest or wood? Knowing that would help guide which tags to use, otherwise I'm tempted to just mark everything as natural=wood and be done with it! Some examples to indicate when you go from natural to landuse, and from wood to forest, would help.
