 Merging ways does strange things.

 e.g. images here:

 Step 1: Draw a way A with three nodes A1, A2, A3 from bottom left to top
 right in the first image.

 Step 2: Draw a second way B with three nodes B1, B2, A3

 Step 3: Select both ways and click merge button. End up with single way
 with 5 nodes A1, A2, A3, B1, B2 (rather than A1, A2, A3, B2, B1 as might
 be expected).

 I have also tried the above and reversing the second way before merging in
 case the direction of the ways both ending at the same node made any
 difference, but with the same resulting way after merging.
