Add "pedestrians" to mission statement #93

The current mission statement reads:

Provide easy navigating offline for drivers, hikers, and cyclists, with privacy-focus and open-source, made by and for the community.

Perhaps this is a difference in dialects, but I would not consider someone who walks along city streets a "hiker," but presumably CoMaps intends to support this use. Thus, I would suggest changing the mission statement to:

Provide easy navigating offline for drivers, pedestrians, hikers, and cyclists, with privacy-focus and open-source, made by and for the community.

Would there be a better way to say this? Perhaps "pedestrians [and] hikers" is redundant (although I would not expect an app for "pedestrians" to include hiking trails); maybe "drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, and outdoor enthusiasts"?

I would go one step further and reflect the mobility pyramid—pedestrians/hikers, cyclists and drivers—in that order

Maybe

Provide easy navigating offline for pedestrians, hikers, cyclists and drivers. With privacy-focus and open-source, made by and for the community.

(move drivers to end, split sentence into two)
