What if a new  way of tagging something gets approved? The moment it
becomes "approved" there will be probably 0 objects with the new tags,
and if someone follows this principle (from what I see, this is exactly
what happens) the new tags won't be used, rendering useless the
discussion and approving of the new tags*.
I'm probably a too novice mapper to appreciate the freedom this "tag as
you see fit" approach gives me, I usually feel like "couldn't they just
compromise on ONE way of tagging this? what if I tag it wrong?", but
that's probably my fault...
