Perhaps some who know JOSM could take a look at the most recent
uploads by "blars" to see what the effect of reverting those changes would be.

It seems we are speaking on many levels here.
NE2 talks of a redaction bot: powerful scripting so intelligent it
is not quite yet built (scripting coupled with lack of consensus
isn't power). Charlotte, a seriously dedicated user, wants to
reduce skull-aching editing, clearly seeing a pattern of edits by a
non-CT user. OSM has a license change coming up. There are
intermediate functions going on like facilitation and reminding of
purpose and the need to achieve consensus. John says "there are
likely clever ways to duck out old noisy TIGER and bring in new,
better TIGER...(and more talk is required, yes)."
The right thoughts, words, intentions and actions, right here, right
now, pretty much gets us to many finish lines.
Let's make this a shining example. Let's decide that powerful
(almost magic) bot-logic (like redaction and to perhaps some degree,
changeset revert plugin) "takes out these blars edits."
How?
Much of this process might seem like only chalk-and-watercolors to
some readers. I see good chunks of it now largely sketched out.
Sure, "How?" are the meaty parts, but we have a lot of meatiness in
this project.
Think, speak (type), intend, do.
Terrific project, this here OSM.
Cutting to the chase and finish line,
