When I am doing normal editing I usually have a JOSM filter enabled to
hide boundaries because I don't care/know/want to touch them. What
about making such a filter default in the popular editors? If someone
WANTS to edit a boundary, they can disable the filter. Otherwise it is
read-only for normal editing. This is kind of a hack to implement a
"layers" concept from traditional GIS applications but it would be
easy to do.
These filters would not solve the problem.
If boundaries are filtered and not displayed, moving a way with a common node leads to the same error - but as the boundary is not displayed, it's even harder to recognize the error.

A warning "by moving the residential highway X you moved the administrative boundary Y, too. Was that your intention? [Yes, keep it] [No, please revert and select the common node]" would be better perhaps;

But: I'm not sure if that's possible in general for moving operations, or if there are issues where that question is not useful e.g. because the secondary motion is usually intended at these issues.
