shop=boutique is also one of the most confusing tags for French speaking

I'm aware of this linguistic problem. But instead of abandoning
shop=boutique, this problem can be solved if editors correct the
French translation ("boutique de mode"?) and if renderers display an
appropriate icon (maybe a shirt and a handbag?).

That would help - I would insist on the luxury aspect, something like "vĂȘtements de luxe".

But ultimately, I believe that shop=clothe+clothes=luxury would take that special case back into the fold of a logical tagging scheme... The fewer special cases the better !
