[Tagging] roundtrip

What is the use of the key:roundtrip? Explanations just say roundtrip =yes/no (optional) Use roundtrip=no to indicate that a route goes from A to B. Use roundtrip=yes to indicate that the start and finish of the route are at the same location

If I understand this proposal right, the goal of this tag is to provide more specific information for the general likelihood of whether a water feature (only rivers?) exists: when it comes and goes every days. This sounds like there are two pieces of information that are desirable to map: - What

To me the difference between ephemeral and intermittent is the duration of the water flow/presence. To me Lake Eyre is intermittent. The Fink Rv. is ephemeral. The Cooper etc I don't know enough to say ephemeral.. so I'd use intermittent. I'd not put a season on any of them .. too variable for
