Perhaps junction=traffic_circle or junction=rotary (or "gyratory," which is sometimes used in the UK for similar non-roundabout rotary intersections, like at Shepard's Bush in west London) would be more appropriate for circular intersections that do not obey the "internal traffic has priority" rule, especially since they are signed differently in many (all?) states. Besides which, the current edit of http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:junction%3Droundabout is yours, so obviously you haven't been banned from editing the wiki and Imagic hasn't imposed his will on that page.
