What are the potential columns I can receive in a Nominatim API Reverse Geocode lookup?

As per this link : here

It's clear with &addressdetails=1 the response can be broken down into Elements.

Problem is, I've looked at a series of responses for different osm_id's and the element list can include very different, additional elements, which are not present in this example. (e.g or )

Is there a list I can get which documents all the possible Elements that can be sent back? I cannot find this documentation anywhere.

The responses are defined by the tags found in openstreetmap.

Since OSM allows arbitrary tagging it isn't possible to define all the possible tags but you can find a list of the specifically supported ones here:

There is currently no documentation about the possible elements, except for the source code.
