Brownfield is a field that is brown, that means brown grass. So large areas of grass that are brown most of the year. That's the first think I thought of apparently I'm not alone in this. Therefore I think you should rethink its usage (just ~350 ways), and especially its inclusion in Potlatch auto complete dictionary. > > why we're not using right_of_way=motorway|primary|cycleway|footway| What does highway mean? To me it used to mean a big motorway with lots of cars, now my definition of highway is "tag used by OSM to describe ways". So even Blackadder saved us from the class and type tags, it's not the most easy tag name to understand, even though it's one tag most people have used.
