Comment (by woodpeck):

 I had once started a patch to the rails port allowing such bounding boxes
 (see https://github.com/woodpeck/openstreetmap-website/tree/bbox-cross-
 dateline) but after some discussions with other developers I was convinced
 that this really is an issue for the editor and not for the API.
