yes, excellent idea! I've been trying to improve as many tag and key pages as I can, and these links will help motivate that.
Incidentally, there are quite a few improvements that could be done to the browse pages - it'd be great to be able to view a way page, for example, and then browse other nearby features with the same tags. A top-level browse page (maybe linking through to different categories of features, separated by country then area) would be good too - basically, giving people more ways of exploring the data we have. Of course, some of these are fairly resource-heavy queries, but a most of the indexes could be built offline and heavily cached. Incidentally, are there any plans to build some of the XAPI functions into the core API? This is pretty essential IMO.
