The drag-and-drop symbols are just the start. You can tag almost anything you like with OSM.
To do this, create a new point by double-clicking on the map. It'll appear as a green circle. Then add "tags" using the '+' button at the bottom right, and typing. For example, fuel might be 'amenity' (left-hand box) 'fuel' (right-hand box).
You can find out more using the Help button at the bottom left of Potlatch, the online editor.

do you mean tagging things amenity=fuel ? or the actual icon files, which are in SVN?
