I'm completely open to suggestions in this regard. I took the key I've
already seen used by some, but if someone comes up with a better idea,
great.

With respect to the proposed key, I would invite you to consider an
alternative way of tagging this function.
In various countries and in various religions the approaches on how to
say good-bye to the dead are different.
I am thinking of the "camera ardente" in Italy or the "Aufbahrung" in
Germany, these are ways of providing this in different contexts. What
about a tag that can be added to any kind of place, a funeral
director's or a chapel or the town hall, indicating that this kind of
farewell can be arranged.
I do not have the correct wording in GB English right now ("laying
out"?), but the concept would be not to create a tag that implies a
dedicated building, but to create a tag for the function that can be
added to a building or a "shop".
<this would obviously include the possibility of tagging a dedicated
funeral hall.

In the US, there are privately owned cemeteries, often with a
private funeral home / mortuary building on the site. You can buy a
plot and also pay for the funeral services, including the use of a
hall for a viewing, reception or funeral service (religious or
otherwise).
E.g.:
https://www.dignitymemorial.com/funeral-homes/glendale-az/west-resthaven-funeral-home/4707
[2] - a funeral home and private cemetery.
In many American cities most of the cemeteries, crematoriums and
mausoleums are privately owned and operated.
So my question is if we should add this new tag to the reception /
service halls which are found at at private funeral homes /
mortuaries as well? Often these are in the same building as the
crematorium and the morgue (where bodies are prepared and stored
prior to burial or cremation), and the offices and reception for the
funeral home are also there.
Or are we only thinking to use this new tag for stand-alone halls?
It would also be good to clarify how these are different than a
place_of_worship. For example, consider the many non-sectarian
chapels and prayer rooms found in airports, shopping centres,
hospitals, and similar public facilities. Aren't those tagged as
amenity=place_of_worship - or is that also a mistake?

Not important at all. I just think that if it is ancillary to the
business of selling coffins, transporting corpses, preparing them
for
burial, doing paperwork in relation to that etc. (what the French
call a
"funérarium"), then it doesn't deserve a tag distinct from the
funeral
directors tag (but if a majority think otherwise, I don't have
strong
feelings about it either).

I could imagine rare cases of a privately run cemetery not
linked to
any religion or belief/life stance and where there is such a
building.
But typically, they would be public.
let me rephrase my question: how important is it that the
facility is
“public”?
IMHO this feature should have a functional definition only,
everything
else depends on the context and is not really relevant.
