Building multiple lot types in the same lot

Yupp, I've been hoping for a multiple categories feature, too. I preferred how TS3 handled this (IIRC) where functionality was set by a specific object and not lot category. When it was a rabbit hole building we could easily hide that object in the cellar if we wanted to create our own stuff or have multiple functions on the same lot.
I think TS4 could have recognized areas within a lot, I'd gladly fence/wall in the sections if that was required. A shopping mall could have wide arches and still feel like one thing even if each room had its own functionality.
It is possible to combine a few categories but it seems a bit like hit and go. I just turned the Waterside Warble karaoke bar into a restaurant, but kept some of the karaoke rooms. To my surprise several NPC visitors did sing karaoke. I expected it to be used only by my active sims, but there are probably no karaoke contests. In a bar I never saw any NPC guest use the karaoke machine I placed there. If we don't get a multi function feature, I'd like to see a list of what items/functions will work in what lot categories.
