As a new tagger, I look to Map Features to see what tags were supported by
the community, not to see the most common tags. When I want to know the

approach for defining a new tag that OSM currently has.

- interested people have one place to look for new tags and join the

I think that just going for
The search box is also a lot faster than opening MapFeatures. Indeed
