I think this is a pretty good proposal. I've never heard of "wing" as a type of door, I'm more familiar with the term "hinged", which is how Wikipedia also refers to them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Door#Types_of_mechanism I'd also suggest making the default type hinged, and adding: entrance:doo

Andreas, The number of wings tag sounds odd to me, a more general term would be leaves or panels, or even doors - ie, single or double door. If we're using these tags to help disabled access, I would add some tag about the door sill - it doesn't matter if the door opens easily or not if there is
