2. instead of having a special provider, we could reuse an existing provider for viewing OSM layers - SpatiaLite seems to be the most viable candidate. Once data is imported from XML into a database, it should be possible to create one or more views (SpatiaLite tables) of the database (e.g. all polygons or linestrings with "highway" tag)
Did you had a look to the OGR driver made by Even Rouault ? The use of PBF is possible (wayyyy smaller and faster to import) and the performance are quite good when working on a big osm dataset.
And frankly, is there anyone using QGIS OSM plugin for editing?
Yes, it's mainly used to convert the data from/to mif, tab or shp. The low speed is the biggest problem. Josm is powerfull but I would not advice it to a normal gis user as I would not for emacs, potlalch is limited to online editing.
