Any support for 
path=foot
path=cycle
path=horse

path being distinct from highway (more work needed on this)
highway for motorised vehicles who may (?!) share
path not for the fourwheeled vehicles at all - too narrow or prohibited or 
unrealistic as it contains a flight of steps

i'm looking at cycleway as being 'designed for cycle use' with regard to 
width, surface, gradient 
subgroups (the australian) exclusive, shared and separated
all of which would be designated with a bicycle sign
*designed and designated to qualify for cycleway*

other ways which are used by cyclists and pedestrians 
path=foot bicycle=yes
