And I would say that it is perfectly fine
to map shops that are gone while not
in use.

For example food truck that arrives
every night at the same location
(OK, except holidays) seems perfectly
mappable to me.

Similarly, sellers of vegetables, herbs,
pottery, baskets and whatever else in
many cases are present only during day
and disappear without trace in off hours.

I have no problem with mapping them.
See my street_vendor=yes tag idea to 
indicate this state.
