Hi Here is an idea I got regarding tagging validation in editors (iD, JOSM, others). Subsequently to wiki proposal voting and cleanups, it's currently necessarily to open issues in each editor repository to ask for new tagging validation rules.
It can sometimes be time consuming to develop those new rules and such a work is done independently by each project maintainer. While each project have its own specific components, background logic is the same. Would a new lib called like osmtagvalidator or so in charge of doing conform validation to wiki be useful? It may be shared by any project involved in osm editing and preserve its resources for other valuable developments. For me, validation doesn't prevent users to use tags they want, but only warn them about possible mistakes. How would devs and users feel about this? All the best François
