Are there any data users who use 'highway=footway;foot=yes' to

Sort-of - depending on other tags
https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html can display things
differently based on that, but it'd be a pretty niche set of
circumstances. See
https://github.com/SomeoneElseOSM/SomeoneElse-style/blob/master/style.lua#L614
.
Personally I tend to add "foot=yes" when that is the correct tag rather
than rely on "assumed defaults" or the implications of
"designation=public_footpath" because it's more explicit. It's always a
tradeoff between how many tags to add and how many is too many - for
example I wouldn't add "oneway=no" to the majority of roads that
aren't, but it would make sense to mark "the only road across town that
isn't one-way" like that.
Best Regards,
Andy
