Duplication of data, possibly? Regarding the detection of the nearest street, the risk here is at the intersection, where the sidewalk might be attributed to the other street.

In fact, I'd imagine thedisabled are a likely important audience for OSM since Google doesn'tgo out of its way to provide non-visual interfaces to Google Maps asfar as I know. Good point. Other than using relations, I wonder if a search for the nearest street would provide a clue to the router? Not as exact as having either a named way or a relationship.
