Daniel, I'm insterested in that. If you formalize it, please, alert me. 
I think it could be useful:
      - shoulder={yes,no}
      - shoulder:width=5 m
      - shoulder:side={left,right,both}
      - shoulder:line={continuous, dashed,....} (see [1])
      - shoulder:access = [all the access] (in some countries, the 
shoulder is for emergency purposes, depending on highway pedestrians and 
biclycles could use it, in some countries it could be used for buses..)

Thanks a lot,
Xan.
