In order to be a truly easy editor it would need fixed and localized data entry masks instead of text fields. Imo, we cannot expect newbies to look up and edit raw key/value strings. Couldn't the Amenity Editor share presets with JOSM? That would instantly make a large number maintained and translated templates available. Problems that could lead to calls for banning it include: * you can move nodes on ways if they have tags. If someone moves the marker for e.g. a road sign along a street - which looks perfectly sensible in AE -, it will probably distort the way (haven't tested). * it doesn't display markers for features mapped as areas. This would inevitably lead to a lot of duplicate entries. Nothing that couldn't be fixed, though. It clearly demonstrates that simpler-than-Potlatch editing is possible.
