Great idea, Maning. We should do that! Off-hand, I think one of the things I'd love to see is integration of IODb [2] within the iD editor, to make it more convenient for casual mappers use it. While we don't expect them to make any high-precision offsets, there are just too many places where offsets are substantial (>10m) that "good enough" is still great if editors can align on intersections using both axis.
Currently, Strava is the best third-party source for validating and adjusting offsets of publicly available imagery. Bing is still a great default layer, with good resolution and alignment in many areas, despite being a bit long in the tooth. I wish there are more orgs willing to share their telemetry data this way. :wink:.
