<grumble> Why create a key generator:power_source rather than just use power_source. power_source is much more generic so you could re-cycle it for things like district heating, but generator:power_source is only ever going to be used for generating stations, and needs a new column in the database. </grumble>. I think I just prefer more generic, re-usable keys rather than trying to invent a new one for each situation....
This is a core problem with the public_transport=* scheme as well. This tag in and of itself is fine, but the whole additional shebang that is train=yes/no, bus=yes/no, subway=yes/no, etc etc is so dreadful (in the context of the rendering chain) that every time I read #2798 I feel the urge to run away screaming.
