It would be easiest to add “holding_position=runway” to the existing “aeroway=holding_position” tag. This way, any database users who are already using “aeroway=holding_position” do not have their data broken, and he detail can be added incrementally
BTW, why do you need the line mapped rather than a node on the runway or taxiway? Is this for more precise rendering on a flight simulator?
