Don't know for Potlach but JOSM revert all ways selected. In the context you expose, you must select only the portion in the wrong way then revert or you can merge wrong way section with a right way section (JOSM ask you the direction). If the river (multiple sections) has been include in the waterway relation (1), you can easily check sections with JOSM by opening the relation window and sort the way, it qwill display the continuity (with small icons on the right) so you can see if the whole river is correctly ordered (all ways in the same direction). note : In France we began using widely this relation tag and it's also very good tool to check river mapping advancement and to use efficiently waterway (2).
