Any help in identifying areas that should be eye-balled and possibly
cleaned up would be welcome help indeed. It seems a small bit to attach
a tag to any affected ways or relations from which members have been
redacted. This will be especially helpful when the editing tools catch
up to show the tags presence and/or highlight what could use attention.

Hi,
The rebuild team is warning that the relicensing ("redaction" script)
will unsurprisingly affect many objects geometry like ways loosing
nodes, intersections with unconnected ways, self-intersecting
polygons, roundabouts not round, buildings not square anymore, etc..
([1]).
The question is to insert in the rebuild script some kind of reports
or logs about such affected objects or not. First, I think it has to
be discussed widely with the community, not only in a small group (we
have enough conspiracy noises in this project).
Then, I think that the best option would be to add a specific tag
which could facilitate the remapping process for the "crowd". The tag
should be enough self-explanatory for all, including newcomers and
removed once the issue is fixed.
Another option is to set-up some monitoring of the affected objects
and consider them as 'fixed' as soon as they are touched after the
relicensing (but that could be insufficient imho).
Last option is to do nothing since we already have many quality
assurance tools ([2]) monitoring the contributions.
