Well, dump_point might be a workable compromise and it plays well with
Dave, are we still looking for a name for a new tag when it seems we can
work with whats already there ?
tourism=camp_site
amenity=waste_disposal
waste=chemical_toilet
I agree its wordier than it need be but those tags exist and we don't
need to go through an approval process.

amenity=waste_disposal does not need to be associated with campsite,
it can be .. but can stand alone.
The 'amenity=waste_disposal does not look to have been through an
aproval process ... nor does any tag. The 'approval process' is
voluntary .. I like to use it as it gets more views other than mine and
hopefully gets a better concesus and results in a better tag.

None of them are documented - therefore they are not defined within OSM.
Any other tag is unused and could be changed if you think that would of
benefit.
So you/'we'/OSM are not stuck with waste=chemical_toilet .... at least
at the moment.
Do note that waste= is used under amenity=waste_basket as well as
amenity=waste_disposal.
