I've just merged the change and pushed to the main git repo.  I should have
done it sooner but got distracted by Christmas.  I would have done it a few
days earlier except that I encountered test failures.  I had to fix the
db-snapshot.osm test data file as one of the changeset ids seemed to be
incorrect.  The tests are now passing, but let me know if I've done
anything wrong.

As for the name of the option, I don't mind too much.  I'm personally happy
to leave it as it is, largely because I can't think of a better name.  I'd
rather see efforts go towards improving its behaviour to detect more
invalid ways than trying to more accurately name the option to describe its
limitations.
