Are you sure this is correct tagging? I think this would merit a
highway=path - maybe with low visibility (key visibility)

I'm not proposing this for the default style - any style is different and
everyone wants to filter different things. We cannot show even half of the
data that is inside OSM without ending up with a useless map - so every map
needs to filter according to it's use case. Most maps don't even show
barrier=gate / highway=gate in first place.
