Unless you include a definition of how close the trees have to be to the 
roadway, almost every roadway in areas with enough rainfall to support trees 
would be classified as tree-lined.

Adding a new value to the highway tag does not seem to fit with the
current view of highway-tag usage. This suggestion keeps the
"importance" of the roads intact (and thus helps routing software
calculate the best route - should a tree-lined road be preferred over
a tertiary? Over a unclassified?)
And both a residential and tertiary can have trees on the sides.
