Well, you also have the status "proposed, but no start date set",
which would fit some subdivision maps I have seen. I am not sure how
one would tag that.
Again, I probably wouldn't add that, until it has got a projected start
date (and a budget!). In the UK at least, local authorities often
propose all sorts of pie-in-the-sky schemes for bypasses etc. for
political reasons. Until they've got funding it makes no sense to
assume that they're going to happen.
To me it makes sense for something like HS2 phase 2*1 (the new high
speed rail lines north of Birmingham) to be in OSM, despite the
necessary act of parliament not having been passed yet*2, because there
is funding and considerable political will behind it. The Lincoln
Eastern Bypass*3, not so much*4.
