But... isn't there a danger that the mapper will load this simplified/reduced object in JOSM (etc), change the tags, then press upload? And then upload the simplified/reduced geometry? Which will make the OSM data worse? If you want to just edit the tags of large complicated objects, you could use a special editor like Level0 or RawEditor? (Or write software that makes the XML API call(s) yourself).
