IMHO we should distinguish between the building and the user of the building. 
When there is a object tagged with building=* the name tag refers to the 
building. When there are other tags like amenity or shop etc it becomes 
ambiguous and IMHO it would mostly be better to add another object for these, 
like a node or a multipolygon relation, where the name and other tags for this 
feature go.
