Hi,

A long time ago there was a somewhat heated discussion on one of the 
mailing lists involving one of the lead Merkaator developers who droned 
on about how the format he's using is several orders of magnitude better 
than JOSM's.

I never investigated their format, but supposedly it has all the things 
you write about. I think you can even save something in Merkaartor then 
load it again and undo something you did before the save or so ;)

I think that before we invent something new, or continue down our lonely 
road (AFAIK nobody else uses the JOSM file format, do they?) we should 
perhaps investigate whether we could use the same format Merkaartor is 
using. If that doesn't work, then another option would be working with 
OsmChange (.osc) files. They are allowed to have multiple versions of 
the same object.

Bye
Frederik
