Yes in order to have a clear pattern for tagging these "water delivering" 
items, we need to separate the physical aspect from the quality of water 
provided.

Physical aspect would be : water_wells, drinking_foutains --> good for the user 
to know if he can easily drink or fill a bottle or connect a hose etc..

Quality of water would be : drinking_water=yes/no; mineral_water=yes/no

Because drinking water is a *property* of sources, water wells,
fountains, drinking fountains (bubblers) etc., I think it makes more
sense to tag these objects and to add drinking_water=yes tags
(discouraging the use of `amenity=drinking_water`).

As for the rendering, I like how OsmAnd renders drinking_water=yes/no:
with a drop overlay that is blue for drinking_water=yes [^1] and grey
for drinking_water=no [^2].
