I've always thought these would be good characters, since Dwarven deities like gold so much. Has anyone tried these guys?

I like them, they have pretty good strength and toughness when they begin, so it's easier to survive. I never got very far in the game with them, I usually play DE merchants or drakelings, the acid spit really helps in the beginning.
For the Horde!

Okay, I just made one, and he's started off better than anyone deserves. He's level 8, has killed Kranch, started with potion expertise (yes!), and two potions of gain att (!!). He also found two shops already (scrolls and potions).
Do merchants tend to find more shops? Gosh, I hope so.

It must've been too good to be true...

...because ADOM ate my character! Got a critical error message for no reason. Very sad.

Merchants aren't any better or worse than other classes, in my opinion. Every class has their own little survival trick - and for merchants, it's coin throwing. That can actually help keep you alive in the early game, and also against dopplegangers in the later game. I would wish for concentration when possible, to have some backup magic abilities. And I've done a dwarven merchant ULE.

Yes, merchants do tend to get more shops.
