Seems like "surface:cycleway=dirt" would be perfectly reasonable. I can't think of any examples, but since cycleways and roads tend to be maintained separately, it would seem possible for one surface to degrade to the point where you'd want to mark it as different from the other. At that point, I don't see that it has suddenly changed in status in any major way. But that's a minor quibble. I really like the major cases, and think we should document them in the english wiki.
