[OSM-talk] [tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - (Trolley)

[Aun Yngve Johnsen]

1) I do not see the point in this tag, 99% of supermarkets and grocery  
stores world wide have some form of carts available for its customers,  
the few exemptions I have seen are shops that are too small, or shops  
where you ask for the groceries directly over the counter.
2) shop:cart=yes/no is a more sane tag in my opinion
