Just because there's already special treatment does not mean we have to carve 
it in stone. The icons which osm carto currently displays, belong into an osm 
carto map key, not in the wiki on feature definition pages or map features 
compilation pages. Let's not mix up the cartographic representation and 
interpretation and choices of a specific style with the definition of the tags. 
It was always postulated that osm is about data, and that the osm carto style 
is just a demo implementation of one possible interpretation of this data.

cheers,
Martin
