http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dmotorway section
"International equivalence" seems to address the point in question for
"motorway"

Similar equivalence sections are present in the wiki pages for trunk and
primary, tertiary (but only for two countries)

They are missing for lower levels of highways, but they are sometimes given
in the language-specific pages. You will find them in the DE and FR pages
for "secondary" and, less well-defined, for "tertiary"

Below that level things become even more variegated and country-specific

Then I find  country-specific pages like

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Attributierung_von_Stra%C3%9Fen_in_Deutschland

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Switzerland/Map_Features

which cover all highway levels,

I would see this as work in progress, which needs completing on the wiki
side.
