As we map different physical landcovers by eg. landuse=grass,
landuse=forest, natural=sand, natural=water etc. There is theoretically
no tag for urban areas covered by little stones like on this photo:

There is natural=scree tag, but is for mountain regions
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural=scree
I think that natural=shingle is the nearest one tag for this feature and
its meaning can be extend to include also little stone areas in cities.
Creating a new tag would rather make a more mess than clarifying the
situation.

I would like to edit the wiki page for the tag above. Do you agree?
