I have been thinking about this lately as well. In particular
city/county boundaries. I realize this is specific to the US but the
way a lot of our boundaries were imported from TIGER data makes them
very prone to well meaning but ultimately bad edits by mappers.
Basically, there is ALWAYS a node

These filters would not solve the problem.
If boundaries are filtered and not displayed, moving a way with a common
node leads to the same error - but as the boundary is not displayed, it's
even harder to recognize

Perhaps the answer is to remove some of the spurious nodes which were

I'm really not sure why this is being debated so hotly but here is a

I think the recent McDonald's changeset may need reverting or at least
additional editing:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/7454383
It seems whoever did this did an XAPI query for all objects named
McDonalds then did CTRL-A and added/replaced the name with
McDonald's
A simple name
Talking about it on IRC, someone noticed that the same user did a
similar thing with WalMart - Walmart which also resulted in the same
error.

The bicycle router picks almost the exact route I take to work when I
tell it to avoid hills.
One thing I've noticed is that starting and ending positions are kind
of weird when they involve a building polygon. I'm guessing buildings
are reduced to a centroid point in the routing engine
Is there any particular source or maybe source:addr tag being used
when mapping things based on this data?
Out of the two nodes in my city, one was spot on - maybe 5 feet from
the front door of the fraternity house that it belongs to. And it
hasn't been mapped yet so I guess I should get on that.
