For something that can be imported to editors, why not generate a GPX file? 
JOSM loads these natively. Or am I missing something...?

Also, I'm interested in the speed of your script: how long does it take to 
process the entire GB.osm?

I could do some extracts of areas within bounding boxes.

Ah. Thank you for reminding me kml exists. It may be an option for publishing 
bounding boxes as it has quite a rich data model. Ideally I would like 
something that is importable into editors, but such a format/mechanism doesn't 
really exist.
