Thanks for the question. The short answer is, you could not before and won't be 
able if the proposal is accepted :) Of course you should put wheelchair=yes on 
all subway_entrances. You should map obstacles on the way from platform to 
platform, preventing people with wheelchairs from transferring, if you can.

But currently there is no way to mark two stations (or separate platforms 
inside a station) as being in an interchange. The proposal offers a way, by 
grouping all interchange stations in a stop_area_group relation. But that is a 
collection, not a route: having a wheelchair=no on the relation would not make 
sense.

I doubt we can invent a way to map individual routes between transfer stations 
that is easy to map (not a pair of relations on every two stations), easy to 
use (unlike footway and steps ways) and does not interfere with current mapping 
practices.
