Right, Martin; thanks.  Joseph and I discussed off-list there is some 
conflation of tags from hazard=* which intersect well with at least one or two 
existing military=* tag values.  So, yes, there is some overlap with existing 
tag (natural=cliff, too).

I have read our hazard wiki (thanks for the ref) and also mentioned to Joseph 
that hazard=* seems (in addition to being 12 years old and ripe for an update) 
a bit too much "car and driver" oriented.  For example, if a sign warns of 
"moose crossing" or "children often play near this roadway here" OK, put that 
sign on a node onto or next to the highway.

In addition to chasm going away, radioactive hazards (there's ionizing 
radiation, RF energy...) and that there are even places where you wouldn't want 
to be standing during a thunderstorm as they are struck by lightning repeatedly 
(yes, really:  seems there might be one or two in Texas and Canada) there are 
really verifiable "hazard=yes" places (that are not subjective and quite 
verifiable) where a node and a brief mention might be a real thing we could 
very well want to add to our map.  Nudge forward, I don't have massive passion 
or energy to go much further with it, next up, please!  (Yeah).

What a great project, OSM.  (I truly mean that).
