It's not feasible because it would be a very quick way for JOSM to get itself banned if it started trying to download every single object in an area individually like this. >> However one thing that JOSM could do is compare the list of objects in >> memory with those returned by the "map" query and thus find out which >> ones are "missing" from the map query, then request those individually >> to confirm they are really "410 Gone". > > Well, depending on how you downloaded the data in the first place.

If there data didn't come from the API then there can't be a conflict of this sort as the objects would be new objects and therefore couldn't have already been deleted on the server. >> The latter (it is exactly the way as used in 0.5).

That would be really helpful. Recent versions of JOSM already report the detailed error message that the server sends to the user - that should include details of the problem object.
