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? >> 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.
