Another issue with routing software might be the kind of OSM object on which a highway tag is put. Highway=pedestrian areas (and other highway areas, but pedestrian are the most common) could be tagged on multipolygons, but last time I checked this there were no routers evaluating them (not even for routing along the edges, hence leaving gaps for pedestrian routing).
Cheers, Martin
