I agree on this

In Spain the word «kiosko» is seldomly used, but in Canary Islands in 
particular it is quite used  and refers to four typologicaly different things:

a) Small one-room buildings in the public street selling newspapers, tobacco, 
bus tickets, non-alcoholic beverages, candy and other hand to mouth sweets and 
salads. Not a lot of variety on any of them, but newspapers. They are public 
concession bussines.

Example in Barcelona:

b) Places selling the same goods than the previous point that are not one-room 
buildings but places on traditional buildings, having an interior counter or 
dispatching through a window to the street.

Exmaple in Santa Cruz de La Palma inside the maritime station:

It is clear here that «kiosko» refers to the type of goods sold.

c) Special buildings in public parks, used by music bands to give concerts, 
elevated, some of which are elevated enough to have a lower floor used as a 
bar.

It is clear here that «kiosko» refers to the type of building, since the shop 
(if it exists) is a bar.

Example in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria:

d) Non-permanent bars during Carnival and other local festivities, selling 
mostly beverages, including high grade ones.

Here the word refers obviously to the aisle type of the building, even when 
non permament (and thus non-mapeable).

Example in Santa Cruz de Tenerife:

So I thinks that we most conserve shop=kiosk for the type of goods sold, 
independent of the building, and add building=kiosk for the aisled one-room 
buildings, independently of the goods sold.
