You need JOSM for validating anyway so if you're using JOSM then you can
simply search for everything and it will give you the mappers name. iD
will not pick out the crossing ways and duplicate nodes etc.
Have you read through
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Tasking_Manager/Validating_data#Why.2C_When_and_What_do_we_Validate.3F
?
When validating building projects use a search for building to highlight
them. Makes it much easier to spot missing ones.
Other techniques are get your mappers to map at the top say left tile.
That way a validator can check their work even if they don't complete a
tile.
Have fun any questions bug me directly.
