I'm getting more and more convinced that this is the best approach.

I'd like to see a top level place type containing only about a dozen 
broad categories.  Our existing type would provide the sub-type detail.

Perhaps terms like "Place of Worship" instead of "Church", and other 
categories such as "Military base", "Retail outlet", "Medical facility", 
"Educational establishment"?  Higher levels would be something like 
"Country", "Region" and "Populated place" only.


Nick.
