With JOSM, I am able to edit the relation without needing the whole  
relation's ways and nodes to be loaded.

If you are in an area with lots of cycle routes, like London, or you  
hit the UK's National Cycle Network route 1 for example, you don't  
want to go and have to download everything in all the relations in the  
current bbox in advance. You should be able to select a relation and  
then say download all the objects in this relation.
