I'm opposing leisure=swimming as it doesn't fit (IMHO) into the common
logics of the leisure key. Swimming is an activity while leisure usually
describes an object (be it physical like pitch or formal/legal like a
nature reserve). IMHO it would always be leisure=swimming_pool and you can
put the actions for which it is suitable into the sport key (or another key
if you don't like the sport semantics in some cases), e.g.
sport=competitive_diving (or diving), swimming. If you are to map a small
children's pool you might use either another "sport" like feet_dipping ;-)
or another value for leisure (e.g. leisure=splasher_pool instead of
swimming_pool) (personally I'd prefer another value for leisure, i.e. the
latter).

cheers,
Martin
