The opposite is true. "undefined" it is either a oneway=true or not.
In both cases I am allowed to drive it like a oneway=true and it
is the safest thing to do, to ignore this way in the opposite direction
as it is unclear if I am allowed to drive there or not.
Barely 200 roads in all of europe are not something I would worry about.
It's not like you can switch your eyes and brain off just because you have
a navigation system.

Well, anyway. We should better document these possible values in the wiki:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:oneway
That's the place where mappers and developers look up the semantics of
key-value -pairs.
