Instead of slippmymap plugin you can use (although it's much slower) the wmsplugin with the following url: html:http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wmsplugin/VirtualEarthSat.html? This lets you move the imagery if there's an offset, and you can also download the file to your .josm directory and use it locally. You can then hardcode an offset in the file so you don't have to do it every time (there's an example commented out in the file). As a band-aid I'm thinking of just hardcoding inside that file the offsets for cities that are already known. Another idea is hosting a simple text file containing all the offsets on a site like collabedit.com so that everyone can edit it. The html file could just load the file with the offsets dynamically. Unfortunately collabedit is way too slow for anything like that. > > So now i'm mapping all those rivers/streams and the landuses that are almost > impossible to accomplish otherwise.

The source tag is a form of documenting what precision can be expected, so probably common sense applies, there isn't a good rule.
