I see. The type of discout stores we have here (there should be some
wallmart as well, but I personally never encountered one) usually are
mainly for food and have just occasionally some non-food articles
(maybe 2-5% of their floor space), that's why we have no problem
tagging them as supermarkets. Btw.: the department stores do not even
render in the mapnik-style (I filed a ticket for this right now).
Thinking a bit more I see that even in Germany there are indeed
discount department stores.

This leads to a new proposal: discount=yes to discriminate
discounters. Could be used in addition for supermarkets, department
stores and maybe others.

cheers,
Martin
