<div dir="ltr">For lack of a JOSM option, I just cleaned the data using the Python field calculator in QGIS, then ran it all back through ogr2osm. It looks like the leading/trailing spaces were a data type artifact, and "integer" fixed them. Here's the latest:<div>

<font face="arial, sans-serif">The world of XML being fairly alien to me, I find myself wishing for a JOSM feature similar to the field calculator in QGIS. Basically anything that lets me manipulate "attribute" values with python or javascript to trim spaces and concatenate strings. Is there any talk of such a feature?</font></div>
