Imho, if you want to indicate a turning-circle island, it's micro-mapping : you should better draw the loop geometry instead of creating a tag for the geometry (in the same way we don't tag roundabout flares, we draw separate carriageways if we want). Btw, current wiki description is funny : "place to turn around .. but it is not a turning circle".
