Instead of adding a " harbour:toilets=yes/no", your application should check for the existing tag "amenity=toilets" or "toilets=yes/no" ([1]) either on the harbour polygon itself or in one element inside this polygon. It's not the first time that OpenSeaMap is duplicating tags just to avoid some software dev. For instance, the whole "OpenSeaMap/Harbours" wiki ([2]) is doubling what is specified in "Harbour" ([3]). Even buildings have their own tags/namespace in your system ([4]) with e.g. "seamark:building:function" and "seamark:building:shape". Finally, the "seamark" namespace has to be interpreted as the "openseamap porject" domain. You work since years in parallel and with no intention to consolidate with the existing data/practices.
