what about the pavement/sidewalk, shall it be included?

You could argue that sidewalks are just another lane, but there is a difference. The moment you step on a street, you are following rules of a game.

In Buenos Aires almost every road has sidewalks, and I'm surely not going to draw them all as separate ways. Adding the sidewalk tag is much easier.
