osmfilter - is it possible to filter out “highway=footway” but keep ones with “bicycle=yes”?

I want to keep all other objects unchanged.

You haven't explained your purpose but if you want to extract/keep only cycleways then keep in mind that there are other important combinations like bicycle=designated and bicycle=official, too.

@scai - thanks for info about official and other weird tags.
