In my experience, these two tags are really unhelpful. Personally, I don't find the greenfield/brownfield distinction all that relevant to a map: it's essentially a way of jamming in past history into the primary tag, where it should go somewhere else. Secondly, I don't find that the concept of "scheduled for new development" should be tagged this way. When a highway is "scheduled for new development", we mark it "highway=proposed, proposed=motorway". Something similar would seem appropriate: "landuse=proposed, proposed=retail".
