"/ad hoc/" (for this) signifies a solution designed for a specific problem or task, non-generalizable, and not intended to be able to be adapted to other purposes.
"/extempore/" (or more correctly "/ex tempore/", "from the time") means something done without preparation or forethought, as if prompted by the spirit of the moment. "/impromptu/", improvisation, has more or less the same meaning as "/ex tempore/". I don't see how how the above could be seen as substitutes for "in use" or any other OSM tags status...
