It seems that detached is supposed to be a more detailed value than house. I went through as many house type values for building as I could find of taginfo, and put them into a table quite a few of them look to be duplicates/typos. I've attached that table to this email. I used the parent column there to list the more general option above the current row, or if the value was a duplicate I added that in there.
I also came up with this tree of values as best as I could (sorted by
usage):
-+yes
+-+residential
+-+house
+detached
+terrace
+static_caravan
+semidetached_house
+manor
+villa
If that seems correct to everyone I'll see if I can edit the wiki to make
all of this a bit more clear.
