I don't think that's a good idea to try to solve the problems we're
faced with by our current OSM data model by setting up a second
database. We need an improved data model which fits our needs.
Current OSM data model is not flexible enough for expanding for the rest
of the world, and even for many not typical items in the currently
mapped parts of the world. If we will still try to put categories into
the tagging, we won't be able to recategorize it later for example,
because there's a strong backlash against mechanical edits of multiple
objects. IMO we need to let the mappers tag the ground truth and take
the meta informations away, so we can process them and their relations
easier (amenity or shop is so wide, and currently there's no way to make
subcategories if needed).
And note, that this second database (OSMdata) will be just OSM Wiki on
steroids - and that is better, because quite popular opinion is that
it's not manageable anymore.
