Now I've understood you, and I think I agree with you:
This "cycleway=opposite" is something like an abused tag, as in reality there
is no cycleway.
The problem is that no renderer understands "oneway:bicycle=no", which would be
the correct tag.
I have mailed and phoned to the maintainers of two renderers on this subject,
Andy Allen of OSM cyclemap and Sven Geggus ("giggls") of OSM.de.
Both answered, I were right, but I doubt if one of the renderers has been
improved, since.
Perhaps somebody has to tag a street of little importance with
"oneway:bicycle=no" but without "cycleway=opposite", and then wait for a
forthight.
