There has been a ton of work on the existing relations support, how it interacts with pre-existing relations, and plans for simpler interfaces for editing relations.


it seems as if doesn't expose way membership to the user currently. In any area with multipolygons or turn restrictions or, likely more difficult to fix, other types or relations, mappers will really break a lot without even being able to notice.

+1 in case of feature X, but freeform tagging is one of the key features that really make osm what it is
