At least in the US, "direct marketing" usually refers to things like
infomercials or mail advertising campaigns. Such a shop would typically
not be mapped as such.

shop=direct_marketing places too much emphasis on the method of sale
versus what is sold (which is the usual purpose of a shop=* tag), and
also is misleading in this case.
