So, while a tag to denote that a road is rural does not exist (yet), I could
filter out uninteresting roads using tell-tale tags.
So, I could further filter out roads with..
- lit != yes (so, also if lit is not set) to exclude most of the
rural/undeveloped roads. For UK, it is not even tell-tale
- motorway, motorroad anyway
- any but paved roads
- perhaps even only oneway roads?? (asking for input here) Because the cases I
mentioned are in the majority oneway-lanes
- perhaps also only ask for a sidewalk in the first place if the road is tagged
as lit=yes? Asking for input.

So I just posted another mail at the same time you did. As far as I am
concerned roads that are most likely to merit a foot=no are
- all highway road types except tracks and except where foot=no is
regionally implied
- where there is no sidewalk
any that have one of:
- bridge=yes
- tunnel=yes
- ford=yes
- oneway=yes
- bicycle=no/private/...
- bicycle_road=yes (?) Not sure if there are countries where a
bicycle_road would forbit foot traffic in absence of sidewalks
you could also exclude highways that are part of a hiking route (might
be difficult with relations and might overdo it).
lit=* is to fuzzy in my opinion to be useful.
