So, just checking - your proposal is to just have one node node or area 
tagged as leisure=playground, then adding extra tags to that node / area 
to describe the equipment?

IMO it would be more useful to map the locations of individual play 
equipment. eg you have an area tagged as leisure=playground, and within 
that you can add nodes for the individual swings, climbing frames etc. 
Things like slides or zip wires could be mapped as ways. Plus tag these 
as accessible as appropriate.
eg tags like playground=swing, playground=climbing_frame, 
playground=slide etc

Some playgrounds can be fairly spread out across a park, so it makes 
sense to map things like the swings separately from the climbing frames 
etc. I think it would make the maps more useful (and look better).
