Has anyone ever considered tagging an area with landuse=erosion ?

At a HOT mapping arial view, eroded areas along side a river were visible. How to tag them or dont bother ?

First point: erosion is most likely no landuse= but natural=.

Second point: when I mapped eroded parts of the nature, I did so by mapping the result of the erosion which, in my case, was usually natural=scree like you can see here.
