Mainly for use with hstore

Deleted tags

These are tags that are generally regarded as useless for most rendering.

Most of them are from imports or intended as internal information for mappers

Some of them are automatically deleted by editors.

If you want some of them, perhaps for a debugging layer, just delete the lines.

These tags are used by mappers to keep track of data.

They aren't very useful for rendering.
