The key issue with that approach: how does a mapper who isn't expert
enough to grade accurately the difficulty of a MTB trail, but can
clearly see, 'a road bike wouldn't work here', tag the thing
appropriately?  Simple 'highway=path foot=yes bicycle=yes' invites
routing disasters. I can, and do, add 'surface=ground
smoothness=horrible', but is that enough? How many tags must a router
take into consideration before deciding that a cycleway is actually
usable?
