A single shop:
Some larger 'shops' have entrances on all sides of a block - so that is
on 4 streets. However the shop would only use one of those addresses.
You don't tag the individual windows, you tag the shop - either as a
single node towards the shop entrance, or main entrance if it has more
than one entrance, or you tag it as an area using a closed way.
Multiple shops:
Tag each shop separately .. they may share addresses being within the
same building.
