Can also do poly2osm, which is nice for the cases where you want to 
refine an existing poly file.

That would be great, as apparently I had forgotten to do that. :)

That's why I said it would _become_ invalid. It is not an issue right now.

How would you detect order-unaware clients uploading such an ordered 
relation? There is no capability exchange between client and server, so 
you can't know if the client is order-aware. Or would you propose that 
any client using API 0.6 is order-aware at the moment of the official 
migration to 0.6? Next to the mainstream editors, you'd also still have 
the issue of broken clients, scripts, bots.
