As I mentioned before, it is not really a problem for editing, but if you want to know the steps to see if there may be a problem ...
I open JOSM (I usually download the "latest version" every few weeks), and open a GPX file from the command menu. The layers box shows three layers, in order the Validation errors layer (said GPX file) an unnamed data layer Nothing is displayed, a completely blank edit screen. There are several things I can do. If I delete the unnamed data layer, the GPX points pop into view in the default color. Or I can right click the GPX file, choose 'Customize Line Drawing' and then choose 'Draw Lines Between Points For This Layer' and the GPX trace pops into view. Then I download some osm data, do my editing on that layer, upload and 'Bob's your uncle'. Like I said, I usually just download a new version of JOSM and replace the old one, so somewhere along the way I guess I could have changed something, and the behavior just keeps getting carried on. But I don't remember changing anything that might affect the GPX. (I have had a devil of a time trying to get the zoom in keyboard shortcut to be mapped to the '=' though. Just can't seem to get it to stick.) Perhaps next download I'll go through and delete all the JOSM setting files and such just to see what happens. I have to try and remember where they are, though. I'm on Vista. Hope the info helps or at least allays any concern.
