You could use something like<br>
<br>
designation=public_footpath<br>
highway=no<br>
note=Although a right of way, there is no path on the
ground.<br>

Would work I guess. The only problem is that if there is no path
on the ground the only way you can easily map them is by copying
from the OS, so a no go.<br>

There's also the case where line of the "official" footpath (as
indicated by markers at the field edge) doesn't match the path cut
in the crop to help you get across. There's an example of that near
me:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=53.18575&lon=-1.33951&zoom=17&layers=M">http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=53.18575&lon=-1.33951&zoom=17&layers=M</a><br>
<br>
The path marked by the farmer is the "sensible" one that you'd
actually want to use, but doesn't match what's marked by the "public
footpath" signposts (which is also what's on the OS's maps).<br>
