In general a shipping usertag like this would be added to the
shipping.asc file under a new shipping mode. For instance I have used:

SPECIAL Special Shipping for Mail Drops weight  0   99999999    f
[mailing-service-shipping-calc all=1]     { 'free' => 1, }

On a site. In my case when an item that causes the special shipping
calculation to be used gets added I set mv_shipmode=SPECIAL, and for the
most part things should just work, since the [shipping] tag, and
associated work off the shipping scheme designated in shipping.asc. See
item 7 here:
