Since I'm using Potlatch to edit the map, I start the tagging of a walking
path/road etc. by selecting the presets for the walking man. Then, I
select by the surface and permissibility, which for a peds only, gravel, 4ft
wide public path ends up as higway=track and surface=gravel. But isn't
highway=footway the preferred tagging for this?

Isn't that kinda asking for an edit war where there is disputed
territory with different names by different languages possibly in
multiple languages?
Why? By my reading it is to quiet such edit wars, so the exact
opposite. See how this rule is applied in Belgium with streets having
three names and all three printed on street signs.

Also, the name Van Hoevenburg Trail doesn't necessarily mean that it
passes through the Van Hoevenburg Property. That might be the name of the
current land-owner, the name of a former land-owner, or simply the name of
some notable person whom the trail was named after.
thanks for your answers.
By property, I was referring to the key/value pairs to tag ways, not
anything else...

From what I can tell, it was actually the solution to such an edit war.
How
map what the people on the ground say turned into map what's on the
ground, I can't figure out.
