Objects with both "shop" and "building" tags are fairly common (more 
than 180k occurrences in OSM). You're right, it would be possible to 
separate both uses of the same geometry via relations but I don't see 
this happening unless someone actually wanted to do something like tag 
different operators for the shop and the building.
