That's a possibility, though RoadMatcher is the tool for exactly this purpose. For now, after the import, in problematic places I compare the topologies by opening the resulting .osm file from geobase2osm script (not the standalone, but the whole thing) as another layer. Then data can be fixed right there in JOSM (and that's where we're back to "if/once we fix it, it's pretty much as if we did a replacement").
