That sounds good to me. The one issue I have with the import though is the reference numbers being proposed. As I think someone already noted in the previous discussion, these seem to belong to the third-party rather than being an official branch number assigned by Shell. So I don't think we should include these numbers in OSM. On the other hand, having some form of id/key would certainly be useful in terms of future updates to the data. I don't know exactly what Shell do, but I've seen what I assume are branch reference numbers on display at a couple of Shell petrol stations (I think in conjunction with the "fill & go code" mobile payment system identifying each pump as a branch number followed by a pump number). See e.g. http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/248030653 Assuming these branch numbers do exist and are expected to be stable, I think we should be using them instead. And +1 to Adam Snape's comments about licensing.
