So I just posted another mail at the same time you did. As far as I am 
concerned roads that are most likely to merit a foot=no are

- all highway road types except tracks and except where foot=no is 
regionally implied

- where there is no sidewalk

any that have one of:
- bridge=yes
- tunnel=yes
- ford=yes
- oneway=yes
- bicycle=no/private/...
- bicycle_road=yes (?) Not sure if there are countries where a 
bicycle_road would forbit foot traffic in absence of sidewalks

you could also exclude highways that are part of a hiking route (might 
be difficult with relations and might overdo it).

lit=* is to fuzzy in my opinion to be useful.
