That is and was always a critical situation. But the preset was added as 
alternative to the included stuff and did not replace it. I think it was 
correct how Simon did this.

JOSM presets influence the user one way or the other, as they are coupled 
with the validator. So when we add stuff we make a commitment as well as 
when we don't add stuff.

I see not that we need a big modification here. Maybe an update of the 
wording could be done, so that people do not automatically assume "new" is 
"better".
