Sorry, ignore me... I can't read.

I was expecting "access" to be a key, but it's foot=private, motorcar=private,
etc.

Is "access=private" still a good idea, as it covers everything (rather than
having to specify "X=private" for all X in [foot, bicycle, horse, ...])?

Then one could tag "access=private, foot=permissive" for a private
drive that one may walk down, for example.

Maybe I'm just being stupid here? ;-)

Thanks!
