Very neat. Works well and very quick. I tested on something I did last night which shows fine, but it was a coastal area and no land/sea (ie no coast showing) which is a little disorientating (I was editing a river/coastline combination) so presume it doesn't pick/use the relevant shapefiles. Thanks for the work

Simply press this button, and an image will be drawn over the map showing the current state of the database." You simply drag the bookmarklet to your browser bookmarks toolbar, and click it on any OSM map: InformationFreeway, main map, /browse/ pages, etc. I believe that all the kinks of this particular service have been worked out at this point, though I'm happy to take any feedback or criticism you have. (Please CC me on any important feedback.)
