I did not mean to add tags just for the „exceptional“ case(1), but at least I 
would try to support it in my mapping: if you add foot=no to a road where 
pedestrian access is not legally restricted, as the conclusion of a supposed 
obligation to use the sidewalk, then I tell you it breaks the use case where 
you have the obligation to use the road as a pedestrian.


(1) actually this is not such a big exception, it’s the second sentence in the 
paragraph you cited and applies to everyone pushing or pulling vehicles, hand 
carts or carrying other big loads. Also, it is an obligation, not a „nice if 
they would, am only daydreaming“ desire.

Cheers, Martin
