Incorrect tagging of cycleway+footway

[tomass]

iD is breaking years old standard of tagging ways, which are designated for both foot as well as bicycle. Such ways have always been tagged with:

highway=path
foot=designated
bicycle=designated
segregated=yes|no

Now iD is braking this and changing highway to footway or cycleway. If a way has foot=designated - it cannot be cycleway. If a way has bicycle=designated - it cannot be footway. Therefore path is the only possible value.

@tomass Thanks for your feedback. It turns out cycle paths with pedestrian access are tagged differently in different parts of the world. See #6836 for discussion on this topic in France.

Just let me know what other countries use the highway=path pattern and I will prevent iD from showing the preset in them.

Thank you.
Lithuania uses the original OSM tagging scheme described in the first post.

@tomass Okay, I made it so the preset in question won't appear in Lithuania. This will be live in the upcoming 2.15.6 release.

FYI in most places highway=cycleway is about more than access—it's considered a class in the road hierarchy with higher status than highway=path.

Please add Poland as well. We only use highway=cycleway where there are no pedestrians allowed and the standard OSM tagging for shared paths.

Please add Poland as well.

@rmikke This was done in 1bde4dd. Somebody messaged me about it outside GitHub.
