+1 (there is also warnings about close way ends where the way is a
barrier). IMHO JOSM should not encourage people at all to tag the
outer way with area tags and not the multipolygon, even for simple
cases.

I know that you can ignore errors and warnings (permanently in the
validator), but I don't do that because I fear that I might miss a
useful warning, and I guess that other user behave similar, so toning
it down might be a good solution.
