How about simply network=US:CA:CR?
That's all well and good for California, but what about states like
Arkansas (and Florida, IIRC) where the county road system is not
unique to the entire state.
In my opinion, there's too much variation in how each state organizes and
numbers its state-and-lower roads to make a uniform, US-wide rule.  I
would say that state highways should be network=US:ST (where "ST" is the
two-letter state abbreviation), and anything further (county roads,
Pennsylvania's primary and secondary state roads, California's
multi-county roads, etc.) would be US:ST:<whatever>, where the
"<whatever>" is up to the mappers in that state (and, hopefully,
documented on that state's page on the wiki).

yes.

for the California situation, i think there's an obvious answer, as
the tertiary network appears to be divided into lettered groups:

network=US:CA:A
...

don't attempt to represent the counties, the state has already
defined the "networks" for the tertiaries.
