This comes up for discussion on iD’s issue tracker sometimes, and I always close it as something we won’t change. The usage numbers just don’t support it.

Many were imported this way or added years ago, so I don’t think it is fair to blame editor presets for the current situation. Unless someone wants to review them, or the community changes their stance on mechanical editing, these tags are the ones we’re stuck with, even if the English word does not perfectly describe how the tag is used. thanks, Bryan > On Jun 6, 2018, at 10:22 AM, Jeroen Hoek <m...@jeroenhoek.nl> wrote: > > On 06-06-18 16:13, Mateusz Konieczny wrote: >> For start - is there a well written proposal? >> Is there a JOSM preset that people can manually enable? >> Is there a well written issue proposing support in JOSM, iD, Vespucci (if >> already > > Good points. > > Perhaps I'll give it a go to write a concept for such a proposal.
