Perhaps we can have a routing engine at will interpret a sidewalk with residential road junctions as being along a residential road and route for Jay Walking. Otherwise, being routed to the nearest crosswalk to cross to the other side the street sounds like "working as intended". Jay walking a secondary road will get you killed (or at least I will slap you as You step off the curb in front of me when I'm on my bike), and routing disabled people (where curb cuts may be necessary) means a crosswalk is the only place where they should be routed to cross. I would rather the router always error on the side of crosswalks, and let the person decide to Jaywalk if they feel like it.
