While we're at it, I'd like to request that this message reports the id of the offending way and that other error messages from the API are also checked for that the id is included (I remember one other error I got recently that didn't actually mention which object it was talking about). Today I had a large upload with lots of large polygons and it was difficult to find that one I had forgotten to split (I normally split at 500 or less). Also it would be great if the API could keep on parsing the changeset for further errors and report all instead of only the first error on each try, but I realize it would be a little inconsisten with the http error number returned, which there can be only one.
