how do you suggest to put names? On locality nodes? On landuse objects? If you 
do the latter you will often have to make compromises, because of things that 
are part of the named forest but are different landuses, e.g. a lake, or 
buildings, campings, meadows, settlements, cemeteries etc.
You would also have to have overlapping landuse forest areas. I believe it's 
impractical to have it all in one tag: forest objects, the information where 
trees grow and where the landuse is forest. Multipoligon relations also impose 
a limit then how detailed you can get without loosing editability or even 
hitting api limits.
