If I had suggested an existing tag it clearly would have been amenity=picnic_site, access=private.
But waldhütte is clearly better. A shelter is clearly different, we do have some of those, so probably the sites need resurveying before changing to waldhuette/waldhütte.

I got the same idea yesterday but did not dare to propose it :-> So +1 for "amenity=waldhuette". I also found "amenity=wilderness_hut" (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilderness_hut ). In any case, the questions remains about the full tagging scheme: Does "amenity=shelter" still hold in addition to "amenity=waldhuette"?

I would suggest the correct solution, in the tradition of other German loaned words in use in English (kindergarten, rucksack), is to overcome the angst and use "waldhuette" (spelling open to debate). Using a contrived ersatz doesn't seem to make much sense when there is no English equivalent of the object.
I just got the same recommendation from someone living in the States. Apparently Waldhütten are a local species.
As for spelling, I would like keeping the 'ü' in the name. Thus I prefer "amenity=waldhuette" over "waldhutte". Alternatively I would opt for adding the 'ü' to ASCII.
May you see the blinkenlichter.
