I think we should decorrelate the attributes of a road : its
administrative class, its importance in the road network (at least 5
levels), its physical characteristics (motorway-like, two large lanes,
link=yes ...), possibly its traffic characteristics.
So we can tag a secondary motorway or a primary road through a
residential area or an official motorway with pedestrians actually
walking on it.
So that we’ll unify osm road classification through the world
(remember the highway=trunk issue ;-))
It's a noble aim, but unfortunately the first thing that springs to mind
is https://xkcd.com/927/ :)
However, some of the stuff on

I definitely agree with, and in some cases actually do do myself - like
trying to capture the physical characteristics wherever relevant.
