I agree - adding wheelchair accessibility to toilet would be a nice addition to the toilet dialog box.

Dave - can you give more information on how wheelchair:description would be used? To me it would be better to add key/values to describe attributes that using descriptive fields.

In an ideal world you'd be correct, but this is being used in different instances to give a description of wide variations in obstacles or conveniences for those who aren't fully abled. For instance one I saw describe how the entrance door only opened outwards, was very stiff with the handle high up. All very inconvenient for those in wheelchairs.

Take a look a Wheelmap <https://wheelmap.org/en/map#/?categories=accommodation.money_post.education.food.government.health.leisure.misc.shopping.sport.tourism&lat=51.40225784159373&lon=-0.3698873519897461&nodeId=432011111&status=yes.limited&zoom=15> for others. Click icon> Details.
