To me this would be something different: I would assume that a permit is some document expressing permission. For something tagged with access=permit I would assume you need an permit to access - this would be more like access=private. So something like "tolerated" would also be more intutive for me. By the way for "permissive" even a pretty decent dictionary doesn't provide any reasonable translation in this context. In writing this reply I thought about examples for permissive here in Germany. Thinking about that I guess it's kind of the default here so we hardly differentiate from "access=yes". Basically it would be any private way or road where access is not explicitly restricted (e.g. by a sign "private - do not enter").
