Proposal
A key to tag waterfalls, a sudden change in the level of a river or other natural waterway, causing water to drop. A waterfall is more than rapids. The water really falls down.
Tagging
Applies to nodes or ways (use ways only for wide waterfalls, so the way is running from one side of the river to the other).
Rendering
For rendering, I would like to see a small blue cross-bar at right angles to the river/stream for point waterfalls (essentialy the same as the way Osmarender used to do gates). This is pretty standard on topo maps. For wide waterfalls tagged on a way, the rendering could be similar to rendering of a cliff, but coloured blue
