The wiki pages for some keys, such as shop=* have a special value "user defined" which is "All commonly used values according to Taginfo." For those, it is implicit that values can be added without discussion, if they meet certain criteria. As ever, it ends up as "use your common sense." I'd also point out that at least one editor populates some of its drop-downs from Wiki pages (more recently it uses the Wikidata in some cases). This may be a factor in your considerations. -- Paul
