[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - parking=storage: additional values for key parking

[Jan van Bekkum]

Thanks again, makes sense.

What is the best way to map what vehicles the storage is intended for?
motorcar=yes?
Access=motorcar, access=caravan would duplicate the key

So it would become:
shop=vehicle_storage
covered=yes
motorcar=yes
caravan=yes
