Still, I think that it is better to use cascading tags - put as much
valuable info in basic tags (highway and access in this case)
so it is not be necessary to process all tags to achieve good results.

So "[highway=footway] it can be used by pedestrians", maybe
"[highway=footway; vehicle=private] it can
be used by pedestrians but some people may drive here" rather than
"[highway=track; access=private; foot=yes]
it is road for agricultural use but only owner may use but pedestrian may
always use so for public it is footway".

Obviously many tools that would be able to poperly process the first
situation will fail on the second tagging scheme.
