Thank you gentlemen, that has made my day. Maybe JOSM is the A10 of
editors. It's old, it gets no respect, and it's as ugly as sin. Yet it
still does the job better than everything else.
Not sure what type of planes the other editors are.

Thunderbolt II (aka Warthog) was a very effective war plane, both in kill power
and
survivability. Please don't make JOSM's UI seem better than it is by comparing
it
to the Warthog.
If we're talking about the aircraft, you're right that the A-10 is an
amazing aircraft; even now, the USAF doesn't have anything that does
its mission nearly as well as it does. (Of course, close air support
isn't nearly glamourous enough for the flyboys. The Army would love to
take over the A-10 or develop a successor, but isn't allowed
fixed-wing aircraft in its ambit.)
If we're talking about the beast, beauty is in the eye of the
beholder. Gentlemen warthogs appear to find lady warthogs quite
attractive, since there seems still to be no shortage of warthog
piglets.
