You can use sidewalk=both/left/right.
When micromapping, I might draw sidewalks that are really separated from
the road separately. I always tag them with highway=footway +
footway=sidewalk. When I connect them near crossings, I do those parts
highway=footway + footway=crossing.
------+------ highway=footway footway=sidewalk

======x====== highway=residential

highway=footway
footway=crossing
And the x gets highway=crossing of course.
