[Tagging] Change of rendering: place of worship and terminal without building tag

I don't agree that place_of_worship requires a building.
E.g. the Lourdes grotto or perhaps modern versions of Stonehenge or ...
In Christian religion there are several places with many small shrines, but
the whole is a place of worship (sorry don't know the English word).

The wiki page [1] states "typical tags in this context are [list of
buildings}, so it is not a requirement.
