I found two additional problems with the fact that my gps names
trackpoints:

 * When I use one of a trackpoints in a way that gets uploaded to osm,
     then the trackpoint name is also uploaded. As my gps only numbers
     the trackpoints, this is not very useful information.

 * When I load a gpx-File, delete a couple of the named trackpoints, and
     press Ctrl-U for upload, merkaartor tries to delete those
     trackpoints in osm.

I'm not sure if those are actual merkaartor bugs or just issues with my
gpx-format. Am I the only one who has trackpoint names in his gpx-files?

I have written a small python-script to remove all trkpt->name xml-tags
as a workaround.
