[Imports] NHD Duplicate data

Doing a routine pre-upload checklist, I found a case where there was a large
section of duplicate river overlap in adjacent NHD water basin extracts.
This was the Mackinaw river in sub-basins 07130003 and 07130004 . This
becomes easier to see by loading the entire upload into JOSM - the
'flowlines' create a scatter plot that roughly follows the borderline on the
NHD download map. But duplicates extend for a long distance outside the
primary sub-basin boundaries as indicated by the flowlines.
I'm not sure what the best solution is; a program to detect duplicate
areas may not detect duplicates from an adjacent upload by a different
person.
