Agreed.  I think the current data is sufficient (at least in theory: it
might make routing a bit more complex, but that a "small matter of
programming") and you don't need to know so much about permissions to
give the "right" answer: basically, when one asks for a route to B and
B can only be accessed via private roads, then we should allow the use
of private roads.

Similarly for the starting point, obviously.

There can be cases where a finer notion of "who is allowed to use which
road when" might be useful, but I think we're pretty far from that, and
the above heuristic should cover the vast majority of cases.

I don't see why it should end up fragile.
