I think I have an idea what you mean. So it would be an attribute
describing the relation between two linked presets.
How about something like this:
<preset_link preset_name="Mast" relation="alternative" />
with the relation being one of the attributes:
alternative: to link to a similar preset with different tags
companion: to link to a preset with tags often used in combination
modern: to link to a preset which is a more modern style of tagging for
the same thing (eg public transport)
legacy: to link to a preset which is a legacy style of tagging for the
same thing (eg public transport)
The "companion" is already linked frequently in the wiki in the
Template:KeyDescription as "combination". The "alternative" would be
covered by "seeAlso".
So we could have this reflected in the presets as well.
