And the distinction, at least in              Italy, between foot-only and combined foot-cycle crossing              are well visable on satellite imagery. Also              traffic-signals are often clearly visible because of the              stop lines. Hence in that first round it is easy to map              crossings and basic crossing types. The crossing way is              then often added later. To me it comes natural not to              remove the existing tagging on a crossing node when I add              a crossing  way later.

What you mean by "solitary crossing"?
