I oppose. Numeric level values can be used to display a building plan layer by layer where higher floors lay over lower floors. Most software which uses level=* at the moment expects that it is a numeric value. Example: https://youtu.be/qcB5CP-IkLg?t=17m12s If a building has named levels, you can still use numbers at OSM. (It's like our usage of layer=*) If you want that data users get the floor names, why don't you add a level:name=* tag, e.g. level:name="ground floor" level=0 level:name="basement" level=-1 level:name="underground parking" level=-2 level:name="restaurant floor" level=1? Please do not try to change the meaning of a frequently used tag. Best regards Michael -- Per E-Mail kommuniziere ich bevorzugt GPG-verschlüsselt.
