I think duck tagging would mean highway=wheelchair_ramp? Those ramps are also often used to deliver goods using rolling boxes. In fact I think that highway=access_ramp is not that bad, it just isn't used very often (Taginfo says 85 today : http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/highway#values) and I would assume that many public buildings have one, so most mappers either don't map those ramps or they use another tag for it.
