[OSM-talk] Rendering of footways with bicycle=yes

[David Lynch]

Not all cycleways allow foot access, so tagging them as cycleway with
foot=yes with the same issue, just with the modes of transportation
reversed - how do you tell a cycleway which allows foot traffic from
one that doesn't?

IMO, having a foot+cycle rendering separate from foot-only or
cycle-only is a good idea.
