Also, Wikipedia's "quay" page redirects to "wharf" - so let's say that
"wharf" shall be the canonical appellation.

There is no documentation of man_made=wharf in the wiki either... I'll
write that and explain the 'quay' synonymy, unless someone barges in and
explain that we are making an horrible mistake.

Nevertheless, I am surprised about of few wharf/quays are modeled -
especially considering all the contributor interest about rivers, canals
and even harbours. Well... I guess it has to start somewhere !
