Interesting discussion. But the point about rights of way surely is that they are places of transition on the way somewhere else. They don't admit you to anywhere. I can walk along the footpaths at Blenheim Palace anytime I like, but that doesn't mean I can live there. The equivalent of borders is the boundariy along either side of the right of way.

The border on either side of a right of way is private property, so, the immigrant need only find a willing landlord to rent from and he is in.
