Maybe mapping them as separate ways is ok, it certainly seems a lot
simpler than the divider=* tagging page.

This is a big step from current guidelines, and why shouldn't I map
lanes as separate ways then?

Why not. As soon as you tag them as 'lanes' and not 'highways' just
for routing convenience.

 This is done for routers. Imagine you want to go from the marker to
 number 117, as it is mapped today the router will know that you can't
 go back on the same street directly. How can this be mapped with out
 mapping this as two ways, as it's said in the Editing standards:


 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Editing_Standards_and_Conventions#Divided_highways

 IMHO, there is a lack of a tag saying that the road can't be crossed, except
 at crossings e.g. tag:crossable=no.
 If it is forbiden to U-turn it at a cross, a restriction relation must tell
 it, or maybe a different tag if all crossings  are concerned, e.g.
 tag:crossable=not_at_all.

There was a proposal like that
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Divider
that has been abandoned. Not sure of the reason.

I think that having separate ways for legally separated opposing lanes
is the best scheme currently to represent the truth on the ground.

Disclosure: I'm the one who mapped Hornsgatan as it is today.

 I think that having separate ways for legally separated opposing lanes
 is the best scheme currently to represent the truth on the ground.

I'll actually support that.

For now, the best approcah I've found is to:
 - map how car goes (substitute car vith your favourite transport) with 
highway=* lines, never polygons;

 - map where the road is with area:highway polygons 
(http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:area:highway)

You can have a look at the result at:

http://openstreetmap.by/?zoom=17lat=55.77682lon=37.58551lang=envia=37.580903,55.774461;37.588305,55.778311vehicle=car

note that routing lines actually follow the way the driver should move, and 
that large areas of asphalt are shown in their exact boundaries.

Try dragging the markers to play with it. :3
