I think the opposite is the case - it is the legal significance (such as
designation=public_footpath in England) that is normally tagged separately.
For these that are just roads on the ground, they can be highway=path.

This is a theological question on which I don't have the latest doctrine.
I would incline to say that they might be useful to have on the map, so put them
in, but I doubt there is an agreed tagging schema.
