That advantage would still exist. What I am proposing is:

(1) style file can set or delete access/motorcar/foot/bicycle/whatever tags
(2) mkgmap core will map the following access tag values:
   no,private,destination => no, yes,permissive,official,designated = yes

I am not entirely sure about the 'destination'; this is something I 
understood between the lines in the recent discussions.

The mapping of the values in the mkgmap core would allow the style file 
to be simple.

But, the style file could still do some mapping on its own. Here are 
some examples. They are not very sensible, but I hope you got the idea.  
I guess you would only have one of these in the style file:

foot=private|foot=destination { delete foot; }
foot=private|foot=destination { set foot=yes; }
foot=official { set foot=no; }

The mkgmap core would see the foot=* values after this mapping, so you 
could override the internal mapping.
