I would like to propose a new tag (if it is not already there).  The new

Is there any reason not to use the existing
wheelchair=yes|no|limited|designated tags?  If you add
wheelchair=yes to a hiking trail it is implicit that it is for hiking in a
wheelchair.   A problem with
adding wheelchair=hiking is that people may then misapply it (because it
would be available in
editor drop-downs) to other ways where wheelchair=yes ought to be used.
