I don't think that this is a tagging but a routing problem. It seems easy enough to me to program a router "do not use roads with access=private unless they are the first or last segment of a route" or something along those lines.
RE: access=destination. Not sure what the convention is in the US, but in Germany this is mainly used for public roads open only to people living or having business to do on the road, usually to prevent through-traffic. There is an official road sign for this http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anlieger#mediaviewer/File:Zusatzzeichen_1020-30.svg Harald.
