There are now over 500 hot springs mapped with natural=hot_spring.
The tag was proposed way back in 2008 but the proposal was never
approved. Wiki:

Original proposal:

Yep, sounds like a good idea
Some people have suggested tagging hot springs with natural=spring
and a spring=hot subtag, but hot springs have a quite different
geological origin and cultural significance. The wiki page for
natural=spring has a link to hot spring:

Agree that hot spring & spring=hot are different
I have seen both 'natural cold springs' and 'natural hot springs'.
To me there is enough variation in appearance of 'natural cold springs'
to encompass 'natural hot springs'.
The only difference between the two is the temperature.
