I think Serge was focusing on a human-readable summary of changesets, but his code may be usable for creating a more human-friendly POI inspector. My 2¢ for taking this from good to great:
* Restrict to POIs and buildings with POI-type tags. Metadata for streets is much less useful for the general public. Additionally I could envisage a nerd mode where everything-inspection would be enabled. * Only enable at zoom 16+ * Perhaps some (increased) amount of buffering so users don't have to click exactly on the POI icon. * Make it human-readable as discussed. * JOSM / Potlatch link for logged-in users. Some other unobtrusive 'I know something about this POI that's not on the map, show me how to add' link for anonymous users. Great stuff, this.
