Thanks for bringing that up. I already discovered that Tesco in the UK 
has carports for such "curbside" pickup (although they call it Click & 
Collect). While building=carport would combine well with 
amenity=pickup_point, that obviously doesn't work with amenity=parking. 
I guess the reserved parking spots could be mapped as an area tagged 
with amenity=pickup_point on top of a larger area tagged with 
amenity=parking. How does that sound? I am open to other ideas.

(Obligatory P.S. that I have again largely revised the proposal: 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposal:Pickup_points).

Best,
