I admit that I have no good idea, if I would run into such case and failed to
find a better idea
(hopefully one will come) I would invent a new way to tag that.
natural=mountain? Main problem is where to put it - node at arbitrary position
between peaks?
Node at location of highest peak? Area? Relation? All of that is sadly
problematic.

It is perfectly fine to use tags that never went through tagging proposal,
though
I am not going to endorse this one. Tagging mountain ranges seems to poorly fit
OSM
with multiple different opinions where mountain range starts/ends and inability
to
verify it by survey.
All tags were in some stage rarely used before becoming heavily used,
only some cases went through a proposal process.
