[Tagging] shop=kiosk

[john at jfeldredge.com]

However, a shop, located in a kiosk, that is selling "cigarettes, newspapers, sweets, snacks and beverages" is not selling kiosks, so labeling it with shop=kiosk breaks the "label according to the merchandise sold" principle.  A shop that sold kiosks would be selling the buildings to would-be business people.

Hello richard and john:

If they do not sell "cigarettes, newspapers, sweets, snacks and beverages" 
they are not shop=kiosk. They are shop=jewelry or shop=boutique or 
shop=mobile_phone.

I agree with Martin in that shop=must refer to the type of goods sold, not the 
type of building, even if they are quite related. We all have pointed that 
relation is not total: there are "small shop[s] on the pavement" that do not 
qualify as shop=kiosk, and there are places that are not "on the pavement" 
that sell only kiosks things. I know a few located in one room of particular 
houses, selling through the window, near schools.
