Hi, good question.
Keep in mind that:

make a system notification sound on Android, you have to look there.
Although I may be wrong here, some of emails in this folder (that Gmail
deems important) do notify the user loudly.

I was wondering, what do you think (interpret this only as a question)
about introducing validation in iD in the future?
Using MAGIC integrated circuit design tool, that does DRC (Design Rule

I think the person who added these fake notes misses the point in how
OSM actually works.
