If someone lived in a shop structure which isn’t a shop but only an apartment (by use), and had a door to the street, would that be entrance=shop (because of entrance typology) or entrance=home (because it leads to a home)?”


Well .. already there are the values main, secondary, emergency,

And the description lacks precision "The entrance=* key describes the 
point where you can go into a building or enclosed area (such as a zoo, 
theme park, cemetery grounds etc). Different values are used to denote 
the importance or type of entrance."


Really? Importance or type? Shudder.

Importance.. how so?

Type? wooden door, steel door, french door, dutch door, stable door, ... 
yep ... now combine it with the 'importance' .. and you get a mess.


The key will be populated by poor values to reflect the poor 
definition.. you can put anything here, just take your pick.
