And it may be root of problem. In Poland "zebra" is synonym of  "marked 
pedestrian crossing" - 
seehttps://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Przej%C5%9Bcie_dla_pieszych 
<https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Przej%C5%9Bcie_dla_pieszych>
No amount of documentation will protect from mappers using crossing=zebra.
Maybe crossing=united_kingdom_zebra would work.

markings=zebra is much better as mappers will be less likely to misinterpret 
(thoughthere may be other pitfalls).

Not on nodes shared by road and footway?

Tagging way crossing=traffic_island and nodes crossing=traffic_signals is

deeply not obvious.
