Comment(by Rogerc):
I think it would be extremely helpful to be able to choose one of the
ways. I have encountered two situations in particular:
1. Two almost identical ways with identical tags were superimposed. One
was closed, the other was not. (I have found a significant number of such
cases; presumbly an inexperienced mapper did this without knowing).
Deleting one of them would be very hard without being able to select.
2. Many areas (woodlands, lakes etc) have been entered in a rather blocky
outline form, perhaps being traced from a public domain background. They
often share boundaries with each other or with another way. More detailed
mapping may show that they actually diverge and come back again from place
to place. I do not agree that this is very rare. I recently found a place
where a stream ran along the edge of a forest. The stream was split into
sections and one section shared all its nodes with the forest. It was not
possible to separate them - there was no unshared section. I had to delete
the whole shared boundary and then regenerate both ways.
