Here's a way I once damaged a relation, and could do it again with iD: There was a section of messed up road. In order to keep the context on screen, I drew the "correct" road, tagged it as a road, then deleted the squiggle. iD could improve on this by noting I've drawn a line between two ways within the same relation, and asking me what I meant.
