your proposal has the same defect as those that create objects that do 
not exist (highway or building for example) and that add tags 
(in_use=no, construction=yes, state=proposed) to say that the main 
information is wrong, hopping that everbody else 'll parse additional 
tag to have the correct meaning.

Osm is a geographical database, not an inventory. therefore by default 
it can be expected that an object is at its position. if this is not the 
case and if you don't like the idea of making an area for the position 
where it is, I think you will have to use a namespame like variable: in 
order not to mislead the 99.99% of uses that ignore your new tag.
yet when I compare with existential functions, a restaurant for example, 
you don't put a node in every place where there is a seat, you put the 
info on the poi with outdoor_seating tag

For a bus stop or a shetler, we use bench=yes
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key%3Abench
you can draw an area to delimit the location of the benches and add the 
corresponding lander/lancover/leisure tag
can it not fill for your need without giving wrong info that parse major 
tags ?

Marc
