Yes, I have also noticed 'continue' still works as expected.
So maybe it's better to skip or change this text "statements continue to work with the element but without any action of the finalize section applied" in the document because it is confusing what you meant by this.

I'd like to see it to be routable along the perimeter of pedestrian squares (not ideal, but better than broken routing)
Sometimes you see that non existing footways are drawn cross those squares to connect highways but this is mapping for the router.
This has been discussed before on this list, see http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/pipermail/mkgmap-dev/2010q2/008126.html
