This is extremely common, especially in smaller places.

as it is with the JOSM standard Preferences.<br> <br> 2) Easy button in the tools bar to switch between user accounts.<br> <br> 3) A checkbox to decide if you want JOSM to warn you what's<br> the user you<br> are using when uploading the data to OSM. That means: you<br> hit the upload<br> button, and as a final step, JOSM tells you: you are<br> uploading with<br> Polyglot OSM user account. Accept?
