[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] map of a changeset (#3338)

[Mahabarata]

Hi,

I try to delete a lot of obsolete keys/values that you can find on some pages of wikipedia.
I use taginfo then the tab of the map to know where the obsolete datas are.
Then I use overpass turbo to find in an aera all the bad elements.
I zoom on these elements and find them on openstreetmap with ID.
Sometimes I correct the bad tags to the good ones, according to the satellite views, sometimes I delete them or put something better : my work is not an automatic one.

By doing that, the changeset is consistent. I could create 100 changesets to group changes in some very small areas but I don't think that it is useless : the title of my changeset is clear : "delete of key=value".

By doing that, some people don't like because it is impossible to see where the changes have been made : areas sometimes are very big https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/112087262 (I modified some elements in Asia, China, Japon... and go on in the pacific where there was only one to correct).
And I agree with them.
But I'm not agree to what they suggest = to create 100 useless changesets when one is enough.

All that is one example of the problem about the informations you give to us about the changeset we have made.
Even if you don't agree with my way of working, I think a lot of other examples could be find : I mean the simple rectangle on the map around our changes is quite out of fashioned, don"t you think ?

I suggest to improve the rectangle on the map of a changeset to a map looking like the one we find on taginfo (where the keys/values are shown by dots). I mean I suggest that the changes are showed on the map by a dot, only one by node/way/relation even if there are several changes on each object.
It will clearly improve the informations about all the changesets, even when the area is small.

Best regards
