    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:

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.
