oneway:foot=yes has an obvious meaning. foot:backward=no may make sense to someone who has already read the wiki or other documentation, but is confusing and has the double negative aspect to it. It also does not jive with other tags already used on OSM. It would be as if we tagged one-way roads with motor_vehicle:backward=no, etc. -- Shawn K.
