Once you begin, why not to develop a general OSM driver for GDAL as
possible? It could do about the same as osm2pgsql but instead of a named
target it would convert from osm into ogr simple features.

Osmium can already write out to OGR so it would be a good starting
point for such an universal converter:

Osmium is not a polished tool but a library; you will have to write a little C++ code to use it. For writing to shape files, there's an option of using "osmjs" where you can specify the mapping from OSM features to shape features using Javascript - no C++ or compilation required. There's nothing like that for writing to OGR yet though.
