As for lotteries, in Spain there are (at least) three kinds of it. One is National lotteries (and soccer polls) sold in designated places; other are autonomic lotteries, sold in newspapers agents, bars and some other places, and ONCE lotteries, managed by a spanish blind and disabled people association, mostly sold in special kiosk-type places. Perhaps we could take advantage of a shop=lotto tag for such places.
As for other kind of shops, I use shop=tobacco for «estancos», shop=newsagent for «quioscos» and shop=kiosk for a newsagent in an isolated building.
