Hey Mikel, we already have powerful deduplication/sync options within Eden's importer - we'd really like an XSLT stylesheet to link into that... I think import-only would be the starting point. Useful features include villages, potentially admin boundaries & key infrastructure such as hospitals & schools. Once the XSLT was ready then we'd want the ability to download specific subsets, most likely by admin boundary & most likely we'd have the WKT already. Once we'd got that script then a GUI widget should be easy :)
Potlatch integration usecase includes the Red Cross for whom I am implementing a Sahana-based Resource Mapping System & many National Societies were really entrusted about being able to edit OSM. To make this easy we need 2 restructure the config to be per-user not site & try to provide automatic registration to OSM from their user-profile...
