Re: [Tagging] Produce tags for orchards
example: when you have cork oak, they produce cork and nuts for pigs (pata negra and so on) - but when only a tourist visit the area he cant decide what the farmer is earning: cork, nuts, cork and nuts or nothing (not used).

Locally, I'd use it because we have quite a lot of place names whose local pronunciation is not what you'd expect. Edinburg, New York, has its 'g'; 'Cairo' is /ˈkʰeɪ̯.ɹoʊ̯/; 'Berlin;' is /ˈbəːɹ.ɫᵻn/ (or perhaps/ˈbɜːɹ.ɫᵻn/, the local dialect has the fir-fur-fern merger. 'Heard' and 'herd' are pronounced alike); Delhi is /'dʰɛɫˌhäɪ̯/ (nearer a spondee than a trochee). It might be wise to permit Kirshenbaum[1] or X-SAMPA[2] as alternatives (I'd favour the latter, since I know of existing TTS systems that can deal with it.) IPA can be an issue for the keyboard-challenged. That said, I'd be satisfied if front-end programs like JOSM would be able to accept X-SAMPA from the keyboard but store and display the IPA for it.

Hello. After two weeks on holiday, I'm back to discuss on fire hydrants proposal. I've updated the page [1] according to last comments about fire_hydrant:couplings_type and fire_hydrant:couplings_size. If you think it's ok, I will go on putting it on vote.
