I am not sure if I completely understand your question. I think the "rest"
(or whole area) can evventually be split over different landuses, that is
not a problem itself. "landuse" is not suited (IMHO) to create a feature on
its own (besides that of the use of land). If there are other things you'd
like to tag you should use specific tags for them (or introduce new tags
where missing). For "religion" there is the key "religion", I do not
understand what information would be added with landuse=religious that
isn't already specified with "religion" the key and "denomination" its
subkey and other related keys, but I see potential conflicts with other
established landuse values like residential, forest, etc.

cheers,
Martin
