I guess it is. I have stumbled upon this by accident; nodes 1-17 were uploaded as railway entrances in Praha on 04 April. The user in question has no other edits during April (I would have raised the matter more visibly otherwise). I fixed it without discussion and politely notified the user that there might have been a software problem on his end and that the edits have been reverted, however I could still insert his edits as new nodes if he wants. Haven't heard back though. Andy has rightly pointed out that my revert script has a bug. It usually reverts the object to the previous version, unless the action being undone is an object creation in which case it deletes the object. But I have not foreseen the case where I would be undoing undeletes, as happened with node #9; my script simply uploaded the old version of that node (correctly attributed with "visible=false") but the API ignores the visible=false on upload, so what I should have done is simply delete it.
