Warin, I need to head out now and will look at rest of you questions
later. But one question, how about a 'flatter' approach ?

amenity=dump_point  (or dump_station ...)
amenity=dog
amenity=trash_bin

drop the intermediate step involving waste=  I don't like the two stage
approach, know Dave S does not either.

You mean a one step? Like highway= x ?

To do that I'd think a new supper key waste= at the top level! And maybe that is what it needs! If there are enough different kinds then why not?
waste=rubbish_bin
waste=skip_bin
waste=dump_point
waste=chemical_toilet
waste=dog_excrement
waste=sharps
waste=cigarettes
waste=excrement

What does it take to justify a top level tag?

I know there are a lot of amenity tags but there are a lot of amenities
in this world.

David

Yes.. well presently thinking about amenity=reception .. from campsite=reception .. lots more ';reception' other than campsites ... multi building offices and industrial complexes and motels .. may as well have one tag to cover them all.
