[Tagging] Open Voting on Access Aisle

[Alessandro Sarretta]

Thanks Clifford,

I've tried to use your tagging system in an area close where I live. You 
can find here the way (https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/746061718) and 
here a picture from Google Streetview 
(https://www.google.it/maps/@45.428055,11.791072,3a,25.2y,347.58h,76.17t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sc04-aTnZlGZiu4i3Pm0Czw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656). 
Is this what you're proposing?

I think a few mapping examples could help in better understanding the 
proposal.

No Clifford, I'm wondering if the area of the access_aisle could be 
mapped as an independent area (polygon instead of line), aside of the 
parking_space area.

If the aisle is for disabled people, I'd use access_aisle=disabled. 
Maybe we can add some quantitative details as width=* to describe the 
extra space.
