there are also some highway:virtual=* and virtual:highway=* mostly used with 
footway values (footway also path and pedestrian), but the sum of both is 
around 130 so it’s used even less.

Generally, if this was agreed, wouldn’t we have to split every footway that 
connects to a road for its last 2 or so meters, because that’s actually the 
road (in a model that takes the extension of the ways into account)?
