As part of improving the wiki pages on UK tagging guidelines, I wanted to
add details about cycle lanes and cycle tracks. As seen in this mailing
list, I quickly got confused. I want to take this opportunity to share my
findings.
1. "cycleway" key.
I found the current cycleway key to be confusing

+1, it is also more consistent and simple

No, no,no,no
As for changing the cycleway key values:
