Changes (by Richard):

  * priority:  blocker => critical


Comment:

 Ok, so the issue appears to be that P2 is not coping with very long key or
 value strings. I can't actually reproduce it but that doesn't matter, as
 we shouldn't be allowing strings of over 255 characters anyway - they'll
 cause an API error on upload.

 Summary changed; priority demoted from 'blocker' as P2 does actually show
 a warning (albeit a fairly ugly long one!) about tag mismatches when
 merging ways, and you should heed it. :)
