If highway=footpath then oneway applies to pedestrians else it applies to vehicles. It means that if you ever have to map a road where both vehicles and pedestrians are oneway but in opposite directions, you can't. It's a lot cleaner to have separate tags. No messy conditionals. No problems with rare use cases. -- Paul
