I would (first) prefer the other way around:
I would like to see a facility (or even API feature) to avoid the need
to change an object for setting it as valid.
Something like: yes, this pub exists and the tags (or even better: the
marked tags) are valid up to $NOW
If changesets like the one you mentioned are for "refreshing" objects,
that would be a much better solution, I guess.

Hi,
I just stumbled across a changeset where someone helpfully added a
"toilet:access=customers" to 1350 pubs in the Greeater London area
(thereby adding no information but freshening the time stamp of the
objects, giving the cursory visitor the impression that the pub might
actually have been resurveyed which it very likely hasn't).
This is not a big deal, not something that I would normally write to
the list (or the author) about. It happens all the time, too often to
get upset. But what if I had
1. a facility where I can comment on the perceived usefulness of a
changeset;
2. a facility where I can click a "thumbs down" or "thumbs up" in case
I particularly like or dislike the change;
3. a league table showing the most liked/disliked changesets and their
perpetrators^Wauthors.
Now before I start hacking on something like that - wasn't somebody
toying with the very same idea? Serge, was that you perhaps?
Bye
Frederik
