Not formally, but certainly when deciding which presets to use in Potlatch I'll look at the other editor presets; at tools like OSMdoc and Tagwatch; and at the Mapnik stylesheet. IME the editors and Mapnik tend to share a fairly common core of tags whereas the wiki can be a bit "out there". Someone came up with a useful comparison chart recently but, haha, it's on our embarrassment of a wiki so forget any chances of finding that again. I will confess to being very disappointed that JOSM has now adopted the retarded why-use-one-tag-when-eighty-three-will-do cycleway scheme. > Instead mappers would be free to simply do what they enjoy - mapping. I like your optimism. But people do genuinely appear to enjoy wiki-fiddling, too.
