Hi, capital=yes is also used for regional capitals, eg. capital of a county or lower administrative areas. Note: there are only 193 countries accepted by UN and additional 13 ones not accepted. So I would recommend to use is_capital=country in combination with place=city.
If the capital is the capital of multiple different admin_level, then the tag would be ambiguous or should accept multiple values. I would rather propose something like is_capital:country=[name of country] is_capital:state=[name of state] or even better, use admin_level numbers instead of "country" and "state" in the tag.
