Can happen where pedestrians and stopping are prohibited, but cycling is 
allowed.

there's a cyclists must dismount sign for the footway along the Dunn
Bridge between Albany and Rensselaer NY.

well, if it is tagged as highway=footway you already have to dismount -
otherwise it would be tagged as highway=cycleway.
So where is the need for a bicycle=dismount here?

I only see the practical need for a bicycle:dismount=no where bicycles
are even not allowed dismounted.

Bicycle:dismount=no is ambiguous. Many people are likely to interpret this as 
meaning "you are allowed to be mounted on a bike, but not allowed to dismount 
from a bike". I think bicycle=no would be clearer in meaning.
