So we add a fixme tag instead and something along the lines of "fixme=Does this need a layer tag?". These show up correctly on keepright and josm validator and are more of a prompt to do something about it. > > The script does the changes in small chunks, (configurable but currently > > set at maximum 100 ways), so it is easy to look through each changeset to > > see what has been added. > > Is anyone planning to do this?

I intended that if there was a problem then any user could find the changeset easily and then advise me of the problem and I could go back and alter it or they could alter it.
