I'd say if a way was meant primarily for cars (primary, secondary,
tertiary, residential, unclassified, service) then render access for cars.
If it was meant primarily for pedestrians (footway, path, pedestrian, maybe
even track) then render access for foot.

And if we want to go wild, maybe in zoom 19 render a little sign with a
crossed over pedestrian on service roads if pedestrians aren't allowed, or
something like that.

For me it was always clear that the standard access appearing on the map was 
meant for cars. Thats
what we are all used to as other maps do the same.
That has worked for me most of the time although I mostly use my feet or my 
bike to get around. I
never expected bike/foot-related access on the map, as I know for certain that 
the large majority of
the main maps users uses it for car-related activity.
For other things, there are good specialised maps available.

Just my 2 cts.
