Would you please explain why you think a new tag may be useful?

For my part I disagree with you.
The streets Jaakoo described match more or less the description of a
living_street (or maybe even highway=pedestrian) maybe with lacking a
paved surface.
I consider  it less than useful to create a new tag with the long tail
of adding it to all data consumers like renderers and apps just because
there are countries where living streets don't exist in the legislation
but in reality.
