I would like to return to the original question: 1.) I think it is confusing to have building=cowshed allowed on nodes, but building=cabin not allowed. We should unify this. Either _all_ building=* keys can be used on nodes, or _none_.
2.) If we agree on 1.), would we opt to allow nodes or to disallow nodes? After reading the previous comments, I would tend to allow it.
