Has as an example been found yet?   There are areas that are void of vegetation for most of the year, or even years, that change with the right amount of rain.

Many desert climates can be mapped as natural=sand (for dunes and other areas of sand), natural=bare_rock (for bedrock and large stones), natural=scree, natural=shingle, or natural=heath (for areas of dwarf shrubs), but we still need a tag for unvegetated areas which are not sand, rock, stones or vegetation. While these areas are rare in many climates, they can cover fairly large spots in some very dry areas, and we should provide more precise tagging since "natural=desert" could be any of these things (or even natural=scrub)

    sure, you could also spend a lifetime mapping rocks, and when
    you’re done, you start mapping smaller rocks ;)
