Documenting solution proposals for `highway=path`

My path was promptly deleted when I did that the last time. I think a simple line/way is better. Then add a proper tag once it is known. Adding an unknown path does not help anybody else but the mapper, so its function is the same as a GPX track. But ok, put it as a proposal and let’s see some feedback.

I think the same logic should apply to roads/paths added from satellite imagery without local knowledge. A line alone isn’t very useful for mappers since it won’t show up in specialized renderers. Some people prefer using highway=road, but others believe it should not include unknown highway=path. I’ve suggested highway=unknown, but I’m open to other ideas.
