[Tagging] Shop=tailor vs craft=tailor

[Tom Pfeifer]

This might have been discussed here a while ago?

If you check the wiki pages, with history and comments, there are the following things to observe:

- shop was apparently in use before the concept of craft=* came up, this explains the higher number
- there is a semantic difference:
   'craft' clearly describes the place where the suit/dress is made.
   'shop' can mean different things. There are places where the customer is just measured, and the 
actual tailoring is done in a place with cheaper labour cost
   'shop' could also mean tailoring-supplies (or is there a different tag for it?)

Some people also distinguish making a new dress, vs. doing minor alterations (shortening the legs, 
small repairs).
