Overpass API / simple logical operators

The question https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/21941/can-not-find-rdby-putgarden-denmark-ferry-route-with-navigator-from-mapfactor gave me the idea to query the DB for all nodes that are tagged barrier=... and do not have an access tag, so I can specifically check those in my area.

(How) can this be done in OverpassQL? Does OverpassQL or some other API have support for "not"-style operators? I couldn't find documentation stating this.

Looks like there's ["key"!="value"], or ["key"!~"value"] if you want to use regular expressions.
