I do agree with Christoph here, tag depreciation should be discussed outside of the scope of osm-carto. Daniel, this all thread looks like you want to promote a tagging scheme for the primary reason you can't make it look nice on the slippy map. That's really not helping tagging discussions! You should restart this all thread on tagging@ without osm-carto in mind. Yves
