I am aware of 2 cases of deletion. In both cases at least some of the 
information has been re-added, possibly with access tagging too.
I have not looked into it too deeply. Not too interested in the past 
practices or attitudes, but what principle should we adopt?

I am seeking thoughts on the mapping these roads/tracks within OSM... 
should we map them and if so how detailed?

As I see it the options are;

* Do not map.
* Map the entry only.
* Map it all.

Add an access tag if thought appropriate, possibly err on the side of 
restriction (tag access=private) rather than public (no access tag)?
