Do we map the pedestrian aspects of traffic light controlled crossings? i.e the Walk/DontWalk or the Green/Red figures?

As a pedestrian I have used many British traffic junctions controlled by traffic lights for the vehicles but no aspects for the pedestrian who has to guess and hope.

Can we fit this element into the discussion?

Having trouble finding a good picture (I'll keep looking), but there are mid-block 
crossings where pedestrians can press an APS to turn on traffic warning lights - usually 
yellow in the US. Some of these crossings do not immediately give you those traffic 
warnings lights, but instead are tied to nearby traffic and turn on after a delay. When 
the lights turn on, there is some form of a pedestrian signal: sometimes the APS talks to 
you, sometimes there's a visual cue: lights turn on or a "walk" sign enables

hm, would you consider these traffic lights, or not? It basically depends on 
this interpretation whether you should use a different tag or would use 
crossing=traffic_lights
If you decide for the latter it could still make sense to add another tag for 
the specific crossing (sub)type.
