I too agree that the same Way should be used for waterway=river and boundary=administrative whenever the boundary is defined by the river. That Way should also be added to a relation for the boundary. If the river has changed course, but the boundary remains in the prior location, then the map should be updated at that point to make two separate Ways.
I only agree when the boundary is actually defined by the feature. The obvious counterexample is a road along a border. The border is either defined by location, and the road was built along the border for ease in acquiring land, or the border is actually defined by the road, but it's unlikely that even a very minor realignment of the road (e.g. smoothing a curve) will result in the border moving.
