If it's not obvious along the length of a path what its designation is, 
or the designations in use are just silly*, then I'll usually tag a 
source:designation.  I guess that it would make sense to do this for 
ORPAs where there isn't a sign on the ground.

If there isn't a sign, and there's no other source for access other than 
"but it's obvious that you can walk/ride along it" that's not really a 
designation, is it?  I'd usually stick a note on explaining why e.g. 
foot=permissive or foot=yes is correct.

Cheers,
Andy

* Like here:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.80862&lon=-0.5763&zoom=15&layers=M
that goes "bridleway -> footpath -> bridleway -> restricted byway" from 
SW to NE.
