Shouldn't we keep the schema to something that is easily
compatible with the Google Transit GTFS format instead of
developing something different all together?
Doesn't GTFSsuggest one location for one unique stop name, whereas we
want each physical location belonging to a name as a separate point?
(this does not suggest incompatibility, just an overlay on GTFS)

GTFS covers Oxomoa's extended form of tagging a stop area as well:
stops.txt contains an optional location_type where the value "1" would
represent a public_transport=stop_area:
0 or blank - Stop. A location where passengers board or disembark from a
transit vehicle.
1 - Station. A physical structure or area that contains one or more stop.
In most cases the stop positions in both directions will have different
locations and thus different stop_lat and stop_lon in GTFS as well. So
we are already "easily compatible".
