My sense may not be good, but how about:

   - Half mile grids.  Apply the aggressive update to any grid with 98%
   version 1 nodes.  Exclude ways that are part of a relation.

Or perhaps:

   - Apply aggressive updates to any version 1 way, which has only version
   1 intersecting ways.

The hard part is excluding from your version count known Tiger bots.  From
my scan of Tiger data that's not a huge problem, but it's definitely a
challenge.

I'd say JOSM is the right tool, but it may take a plugin to make it a great
tool.
