It is a little controversial. I'm inclined to keep all lyou predicates 
as type=Organization.

We also have pages about building (and cafe, trainstation, room) 
accessibility. Maybe that's an oo predicate we could define?

Maybe
<physical-space> oo:accessibility <url>
<organization> lyou:web-accessibilty <url>
?
