In cases where road-surface data isn't available in OSM I'd like to query other data sources and build a list of OSMIDs that I wish to exclude from consideration. If curvature allowed an exclusion list I wouldn't have to go through the pain of coordinating major OSM imports.
This would also be useful if users wanted to build a list of roads with known-bad road surface (even though they might be paved) or if they have other criteria for excluding certain roads from the output.
Closing as out-of-date. With world-wide operation, an exclusion list isn't particularly useful. It could also be handled by filtering in a post-processor.
