[OSM-dev] Deleted objects

Hi,

    after the license change, when people are faced with empty areas 
here and there, it would be nice to have a good undelete feature, so 
that one can at least get back whatever was there before the area was 
mapped by someone who disagreed to the license change.

This requires some sort of "show me all deleted objects in this area" 
API call, and once that exists, editors could support it in some way. 
Potlatch 1 already has an undelete function but uses a custom API that 
can not easily be re-used by other editors including P2.

Has work already been done in that direction, or what kind of person 
would be required to do such work?

Bye
Frederik
