[Tagging] How to tag apartments in a building that is multiuse

[Bryce Nesbitt]

Serge;
So you mean for an existing building outline tagged:

building=retail

You might recognize the residential separately:

building=retail
residential=apartment;condo

And start putting in nodes for each (ground level) business?

Note that a substantial number of high rises have three or more uses.
 Typical mixed use elements are:

   - shops
   - commercial
   - condo
   - apartment
   - hotel
   - private parking
   - public parking
   - cellular tower

A given tower can have several of the above.  Hotel/condo/shops/public
parking for example is a pretty trendy setup in San Francisco.  sro/condo
not so much.  Sometimes the uses are asymmetric, sometimes the tower is
pretty evenly split among uses.

Also note the existing
{{building==apartments}}<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building>anticipates
the simple case of stacking of apartments over retail.
