the best is to first try to understand where it comes from: look for 
recent cases, check the editor tag, ask the user how/why he chose this

it look like a bad idea (but I also dislike using footway for way 
without any foot-only traffic sign).
I agree that i'ts an error and thanks for the cleanup
