Consider this situation: a road on an

Except if you use one of the more general approaches for mapping lanes
as tags (such as [1]). Then you can add arbitrary tags to each lane,
including any that identify them as steps.

A sidewalk is not a lane and it should not be tagged as such. Doing so
would be utterly confusing. Does the lanes proposal (which I think is
horribly overwrought to begin with) not exclude sidewalks? It should.
The sidewalks are not tagged in any of the examples:
