[OSM-dev] iD editor damaging landuse polygons

[Simon Poole]

It is not really a bug, it is simply a (serious) usability issue. To 
recreate

- zoom in on a landuse residential area with buildings (or roads ...)

- continue to zoom in till you no longer see the outline of the landuse 
and just a building

- select the building

- click on the background to deselect the building

- pesky radial menu appears again

- either engage in wild clicking to make the menu go away or press for 
example "q" ....

The basic issue is that you get no feedback that you now actually edited 
an object the size of Paris or similar.
