Sure. But this can already be presented with the current model.

In my opinion, the distinction between features and geometries is very
relevant. 

 

Our use case (very simple indeed):

 

One of the datasets that we handle at our APIs in Localidata is related to
business units in cities (shops, theaters, etc., that is, places in
general). 

*	From the perspective of a general user, a shop can be easily
represented with a lat-long, or a set of lat-longs for the different entries
if in different streets.
*	From the perspective of the city managers, a shop is also related to
the actual unit where it is, and hence a polygon is needed (the ones usually
used by cadastral offices).
