I think perhaps we could ask at osm to get a small area (e.g. in the atlantic or pacific ocean or something like that), that is a "playground" to test tags and icons.

For testing purposes you can use an OSM file which you generate with JOSM or any other editor but which you do not upload to OSM. You can even merge in some "normal" downloaded OSM data if you wish.
