I don't think that using a subkey for all/even/odd is the best solution, because it means that you are indirectly modifying the definition of interpolation=odd (which is interpreted as "this way represents all odd numbers in the interval set by the end points"). My suggestion is to use a new interpolation value; something like interpolation=step + step=4 (step=2 would produce the same result as odd/even, depending on the house number it starts with; step=1 would have the same effect as all). It will of course mean that current applications won't use your interpolation ways at all, but that's how it is supposed be when someone invents a new tag. If the situation is common enough, support will be added.
