Unless something has changed since I looked last time, JOSM asks by default whether or not to delete nodes outside the download bounding box. This message box has a "Do not ask again" check box. Checking this should cause JOSM to remember the user's choice and apply it in all future ocasions. This can be reset somewhere in the Advanced Preferences.
