I have seen this kind of sidewalk that is just a marked lane in Germany as

How about:

sidewalk=right
sidewalk:right:kerb=no
sidewalk:right:surface=asphalt

I also prefer this kind of tagging. I don't see a reason to invent a fully new tag for this - it is an area meant just for pedestrians just like a sidewalk. In this way, it's fully backwards compatible, only additional information is added by the tag mentioning the kerb.

For me, a kerb is not a necessary feature of a sidewalk, e.g. here

There is no kerb or other barrier at all, but still it's obviously a sidewalk.

I don't see how a 2-3 cm high kerb provides any kind of safety for a pedestrian.

That would be an option, very much alike the tagging for cycleways - but this is a tag that needs to be clearly defined and worked into all the existing tools that make use of sidewalks in one way or the other.
