As you don't mention the "Steps_features" proposal, did you miss it?
See: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Steps_features

It proposes exactly this (a ramp=yes|no tag), as well as
ramp:stroller=yes
ramp:bicycle=yes
ramp:wheelchair=yes
ramp:luggage=yes|automatic|manual
to further differentiate the types of ramps - a ramp for bicycles might
not be usable for strollers, for example.
