[OSM-talk] map features: shop items look strange andsupermarket should also be moved here?!?

[Luka Frelih]

shop key is also better than retail because:
    - it is much more widely understood and used by non-native speakers !
    - it is two characters shorter ;)

similarly obscure words are natural=fell and natural=heath which hardly 
any non-saxons grok - or landuse=allotments which could be simply 
landuse=gardens.

of course landuse=retail is not as bad as created_by= which should 
obviously be "created with". thats just wrong. would any of the tool 
authors dare to fix this?

i am also wondering if we are really mapping drainage basins anywhere? 
landuse=basin or i may be confused by the link to the dictionary there.

also i noticed that keys and values insist on using underscore _ in 
place of a space. any good reason for that?

just IMHO 2 shells, but i think simplicity and clarity of tagging 
actually matters in our project. as does inertia but it seems to mostly 
work against us...
