OSM is constrained by making the output data really and truly free
for all users. <br>
<br>
What you are trying to do will restrict the output data of OSM.<br>
<br>
Is that an 'improvement'?<br>
<br>
------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
Deal with the principle issue. Errors/mistakes/accuracy and added
data are side issues. <br>

If someone does not want to see the messages of one or more
contributors they are free to do so. Just as they are free not to
read a thread. <br>
<br>
Ulrich contributions break the social norms by using the digest as
the subject title thus breaking any possibility to organise the
threads into a sequence. <br>
This is unsocial to all. <br>
