Most would agree that it is rather stretching the meaning of forest, but it's the closest availabl tag to get the tree patches rendered on the map.
natural=wood works... and is 'free' of the land use requirement.
The word 'natural' has been taken to mean anything in OSM .. sigh.
So natural=wood is much bette thatn landuse=forest.

 Landcover is a much clear meaning and can be used for 'natural' and 'unnatural'.
So I normally combine it with anything that is tagged 'natural'.

        - first, add landcover=trees in the renderer (putting it the
        same as landuse=forest probably), just to make a get a better
        tagging in area that are not a forest (in other landuse
        especially). It will gradually help to reduce the quantity of
        "misuse" of the other tags "natural=wood" and "landuse=forest"


     Main problem is that many do not consider current usage of
    landuse=forest to be a misuse.


    It is just how this extremely popular tag is used.
