You are assuming that the data consumers doing pre-processing
could/would agree on a specific way to normalize the data.

I envision very long discussions on the "normalizing" mailing list bike
sheding what landuse=forest should be mapped to :-).

Seriously, in a such attribute rich dataset as OSM, normalizing is never
going to go away for data consumers and wouldn't go away even if we had
a tagging czar and a completely regular tagging scheme. It would be nice
if going forward we don't create more "weird" stuff, but I think that in
general is the case.
