i think they should be tagged differently.

if there's just a black on yellow sign saying "share the road" then cyclists
should stay to the right.

if there's a sharrow painted on the road, then the cyclist is supposed 
to ride
a line through the pointed ends of the chevrons in the sharrow, which is 
usually
kind of towards the center of the shared lane.
