 i consider this a bug, because it led to unintentional vandalism more than
 once in my region by different users: nodes with tags, that potlatch 2
 doesn't know are displayed in exactly the same color (green) as nodes
 without any tags. this leads users to believe, that they can delete those,
 because they think that they are empty anyway.

 please change the way nodes with unknown tags are displayed as soon as
 possible to avoid further damages. i suggest to use light blue for tags
 with unknown tags instead of green. same goes for empty nodes, but which
 are part of a relation (for example the label nodes of site relations).
 those should have a different color too.

 programmatically it can't be too difficult. do a "count" on the node and
 if it is greater than 0 use a different color.
