I completely agree, still according to recent talk it might be a possibility to tag man_made=tower, tower=mast, tower:type=communication (I am not really sure if this is nice: tagging as a tower, which it technically isn't, and then specify in the tower-subtag, which kind of "non-tower" it really is. Though we (? some?) do this with tunnels as well (I don't actually, I prefer covered)). Another approach would be to tag man_made=antenna (or mast) with maybe other subtags.
