[Tagging] How to tag parking area where it doesn't make sense to have a way go through it

There are certain residential areas where there are designated parking spots, either for individuals or guests, that are accessible from a road, but are not necessarily a "parking lot" where it would make sense to have a service road go through it. Here is an example:

How should one tag this? The wiki for amenity=parking mentions that one should not have a way connected to just the edge of a parking area, but Osmose considers it a bug if there isn't a connecting way.

I saw parking:lane=* as well, but that seems its intended purpose is to map where there is parking along the way itself, not in dedicated spaces like this.
