It obviously failed at that completely. The most used tags (landuse=residential, industrial, farm, commercial, military, retail...) don't give any detail about ground cover. It has become so bad that I don't see a way to even try to fix this with the landuse tag. It has to go back to the drawing board without thinking about tags that are in use today.
