There should be no need for a tag to indicate whether a cycleway is separated 
from the road, as if the cycleway is part of the road it should not be tagged 
as highway=cycleway at all - it should be tagged as highway=(something else) + 
cycleway=*.  The https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Bicycle  page in the wiki 
is quite clear that there is only one way to map cycle lanes (i.e. not 
separated from road) whereas there are two ways to map cycle tracks (separated 
from a road).
