The thing about putting sea with swamp brings up a good point. Can some of these be logically placed by mixing bits we have now? Farm and sea? waste and sea? inland water with something?
I found that the massive Orieda map has two provinces that mix land and sea features. One is farm and sea and the other is waste/mountain/sea. The provinces funcion okay and have those atributes, so I asume every combination of land attributes and sea attributes is okay. After all, they are just bits, not real, so the game doesn't know that the combinations defy the dev's intentions.

So a deep sea underwater mountain range is viable. I think you would have to input the bit combination into the map file.
