[josm-dev] "Sticky Tags" Feature

[Ian Dees]

Hi JOSM Devs,

I'd like to implement a feature in JOSM that applies the tags from the
clipboard to every new way or node created. I think this would be useful for
creating powerlines (apply power=tower to every new node in the way) or for
a set of buildings along a street (addr:street=* to every new building).

Does anyone have any ideas for how the interface for this might work? Maybe
a menu with toggles in it?
