indeed and as they are getting more widespread more variations can be expected. Recently a small river nearby was converted to a fishpass where a weir was previously. Thus it is definitely a river and a fishpass at the same time and I have seen kayakers going down there. So using a particular watervay value is no longer fitting but at the same time I don't like using more and more top-level keys to describe particular properties of waterways if there is no reason to believe that for example the fish_ass property will be ever useful to any non-waterway object.
