oneway=yes isn't a good idea, as oneway is generally assumed to / not/ affect pedestrians. (Or how many of you actually add an exception for

The exception being highways that are for pedestrians, i.e. footway and
pedestrian.

That exception isn't documented anywhere, really rare and as such
unlikely to be included with all applications. It might make sense to
you as a human, but what's the general rule that would describe the
desired behaviour? For example: Would oneway apply to pedestrians if
used on highway=path? Would this depend on the access tags used together
with it?

It hasn't been documented yet because noone has been mapping to that level of detail yet.


I'd therefore use something like foot[backward]=no (or whatever syntax
for conditional tagging is your personal favourite) on that footway
leading through the turnstile.

That's an uggly looking tag.

That sort of tag or anything equivalently expressive is required to
represent some situations. I'm not proposing it specifically as a
solution for this case. However, as a general solution for conditional
tagging (depending on direction, vehicle, time, etc.) is needed anyway,
it can be used to solve this as well.

oneway:foot=yes is what I would use in that case as it would follow the same pattern as several other tags.
