Recognise "information" as a feature. #19

Hi geofabrik

I have been tagging the old oil drums used as informal but important route markers in cross-desert routes in the Sahara.
I am using an information=route_marker tag, as far as I can see, in the correct manner.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:information
But I am getting error flags in OSMI for "no_feature_tag_nodes"

The tags I use are:
description=bidon / barrel
information=route_marker

I have reviewed the code in osmi_simple_views/src/tagging_view_handler.cpp and it would seem that "information" is not recognised as a feature tag.
Adding two lines somewhere between 420 and 480 would help.

    } else if (!strcmp(t.key(), "information")) {
        return true;

Please assist. Either to guide me on using information tags correctly, or by modifying the code.
best wishes - Craig Allan - OSM: cRaIgalLAn

I think we're basing the error on the assumption that information=* is usually paired with tourism=information. Though I'm not sure if we want to be responsible for you tagging barrels in the desert as "tourist information" ;) we'll do a little research and get back.
