I wondered the other day when I was adding the tag for the (maritime) museum to the man_made=lighthouse node how the renderers would cope. I effectively see this as tagging the same node as two different things. I just got lucky that the keys were different so I could use both values. Or perhaps I didn't and the resulting confusion will just mess up the rendering in that area. I did struggle with the name tag though and had to put <name of museum>/<name of lighthouse>. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.94347&lon=1.29057&zoom=17&layer s=0B00FFF (It renders as lighthouse on Osmarender layer, which is fine by me.)
