I already considered this, however it leads to some usability problems:

It's impossible for the user to know which way is being reversed, so
it's diffcult to decide, which changes need to be applied.

(With the current implementation there is a simular problem, when
reversing several ways at once, but that happens not that often).

Also when joining ways there is a dialog for resoving property confict,
so that it's really impractical to have to correct the properties twice.

It probably whould be better to redesign the conflict resolution and
integrate it with the tag correction as cleanly as possible.
