[Tagging] Continuous Sidewalk or Cycleway

[Peter Elderson]

highway=give_way would not map the situation, just the priority. Maybe it's
just me, but I think highway=give_way is an unclear tag. Who gives way to
who, in what direction?

I think it is better to tag it as a type of crossing. Can be rendered, can
be routed.

Best, Peter Elderson
