Yes, quite definitely a water tap! How you would then distinguish https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:Bubbler.jpg and https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:Water_flowing_from_drinking_water_tap.jpg I wouldn't! I'd call them both a tap. (upward tiny flow vs downward flow that basically always is more significant)For the purpose of a water tap, the amount of flow is basically irrelevant, just so long as you can get water from it as required.
A shower too would have a water tap. We don't add that tag to the shower .. so why would we to a bubbler? Should we not try to keep it simple?
Decorative fountains (what I would simply call a fountain) would also have a tap .. but not normally used by the public .. and plumbers would call it a 'stop cock' in Australia.
