We kinda have this problem all over the place: anywhere you have
multiple places of business where you enter into the building at the
same location for all of them.  This could be a mall, or a Wal-Mart,
or a two-story building with a store on each level.

We currently have no markup for accurately mapping this situation.
Earn yourself a LOLCat of Awesomeness and design markup that works.
