Hi, I've just seen the help text on the startup screen in the latest josm. However if a user knows nothing about projections, it means nothing to them.
"There is also a new option in the tools menu that will make existing shapes into a proper rectangles. Note that ll this is dependent on the projection you're using; you must use a projection in which rectangles look rectangular and not skewed." There are only 2 projections available in the Map settings in the preferences. So do you need to use Mercator or EPSG:4326? Please update the message to tell the user which projection they need to use for it to work properly, rather than requiring the user to find out.
