Hi Greg.

Have a look at https://josm.openstreetmap.de/ticket/6145 and
https://josm.openstreetmap.de/ticket/6313 and propably some more about this
subject.

Maybe, you can add some info.

JOSM Trac is the better place to report bugs or request enhancement. Please
feel free to open a new ticket with as much information as possible (example
file, screenshot, makeup ...).

Cheers
