If you have one object for the pub and one for the house you don't have this problem. A building ideally wouldn't have tags like amenity=pub, but of course it does currently in the osm database. When you come to add a tag like start_date or wikipedia or name it would be better to detach the building's occupant from the building object, while for a few tags like "architect" this might not be necessary. For a POI occupying the whole building you can add a detached node inside the building, or create a multipolygon-relation with the building outline as outer member. I wouldn't suggest overlapping ways as they are really a pita, and I also don't like the POI being part of the building outline because it adds one node to the building as well which is really not needed, and it remains unclear if the POI is outside or inside. cheers, Martin
