Well, there is the "properties"-Menu, which I click all the time to add a tag (there is some shortcut-problem which makes the "add-tag"-shortcut somehow not working in my setting and I got used to click on "add tag" so I don't miss it sufficiently to bother applying changes). I am sure new users will feel even more confused then the experienced ones. Apparently this feature is perceived quite useful for some setups (on screens with few rows), but IMHO the suggested change (opt-in instead of opt-out) would satisfy both parties and keep JOSM simpler for beginners (dynamic UIs are more complex, and you have to move the mouse a lot around to discover what you are after).
