This is an interesting test case for any history parsing scheme. Thanks for pointing it out!

Node 1 should be under closer scrutiny. There should be a special entry on the 'platform status' page.

</osm>

How exactly am I to interpret this? Why are some visible="true" and some
visible="false"? The visible="false" on the last version tells me the node
is deleted. But what happened before? Does the visible="false" on the first
version mean it was deleted before it was re-created as version 2? For a
deleted node, does the timestamp refer to the creation or the deletion?
