I see no reason for paths to be tagged differently just because they are
in an urban or rural setting, but then I find highway=footway intensely
irritating!  Why footway exists but a tag for public footpaths doesn't
is frankly beyond me.

As far as I'm concerned paths should be tagged highway=path with
designations for public footpaths/bridleways/cyclepaths and other uses
for paths used added where appropriate.  Surface tags could be included
for those so inclined.

I'd also like to see a green dotted line to indicate a public footpath
to compliment the green line of dashes used for bridleways.
