Yes, the landcover tag would be very useful in many instances, and quite

surface=* is currently used to denote the landcover information.
Yes, for example surface=trees. Not very satisfactory is it? The
landcover tag is necessary to bring OSM the next step along in
development, and enables a detailed description for example useful in
science and planning, vis-à-vis the multiple layers idea of Frederik Ramm.
How is landcover=trees any more helpful then widely used landuse /
natural?!?
How is landcover orthogonal to landuse / natural?
BTW: There is *no* benefit of a new landcover tag compared to existing tags.
Please also have a look at the subject of this thread. This is about
geology - trees are not part of that AFAIK.
