In JOSM (snapshot-203) under Edit->Preferences,
in the "look and feel" tab, there is a setting for
"Draw lines between GPS points" that I find useful.
I think this is "draw.rawgps.lines".
However, if the GPS trace residing on the server is a long U-shape
and I only download a subset in the middle, a line will be drawn
to shortcut the "U" at the bottom of my download area. This is
particularly ugly if it results in a very long GPS line.
I'm not sure if there is a "right" solution to this. But I guess
avoiding to draw very long GPS lines would be a starter. Perhaps
a limit of 200 metres is reasonable? If timestamps are imported,
perhaps 10 or 15 seconds is a reasonable limit?
