Another example where ID and history are lost is when we change items from 
single nodes to areas, as we get higher resolution photo maps (like NearMap) or 
more accurate GPS / inertial positioning devices. Recently I have been deleting 
nodes and recreating them as areas for playgrounds, tennis courts, swimming 
pools, etc.

Apart from the loss of ID and history, this also affects clients such as Mapzen 
POI Collector. Once a point of interest is no longer a single node, Mapzen does 
not consider it as a point of interest or allow it to be edited. It even 
disappears from the map entirely for several weeks, until Mapzen's base layer 
is re-rendered to show the area.

Does anyone have a good solution for this?

Simon.
