No, it doesn't add the key word "Snake" to the Runner, but the runner
would still be vulnerable to any card that specifically references a
shaman that possesses the Snake Totem. It's a similar enough instance to
the above statement to warrant the point (IMO anyways). In both
instances, the "classification" of the runner is further defined, one
happens to be by adding a keyword, the other is from a special.

Maybe it was a good example, maybe not.

anyways...
