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.
