Would it not be better for 'junction=roundabout' to cause a mechanical edit by adding the oneway tag - so that rather than saying =no, the tag could simply be removed ?
What reason is there for reversing the way - as presumably all direction-dependent tags have + / - options ? Leads to the question as to why make oneway an exception to this rule - it seems most logical to have oneway as the direction as indicated rather than against.
