Definitely. That way people who know about railways can concern themselves
with railway tagging, people who know about waterways can concern themselves
with canal tagging, and so on. When a tag is proposed that cuts across
boundaries (walkers, cyclists and 4x4ers all need to know about bumpy
surfaces) it's still pretty easy to co-ordinate efforts between 'groups'. In
Wikipedia speak it wouldn't be far off a WikiProject.

And we lose the crazy situation where people who don't understand a subject
still feel they should vote on its tags.

cheers
