So, no standalone cycleway will ever be mapped with the cycleway=track tag, and 
no cycleway that is actually shown on a map will have the tag either?  The tag 
is never to actually be used on a cycleway, only on a motor-vehicle road to 
indicate that a cycleway exists somewhere nearby, but isn't directly shown on 
the map?  Does this mean that, should someone else add the cycleway to the map 
at a later time, the cycleway=track tag should be removed from the 
motor-vehicle road?

When it's there, and it could be mapped as a separate track, but you
haven't done so (yet), then you map the road with cycleway=track. If
it has been mapped separately, then you wouldn't, as it's not needed.
