> All ways that intersect with the given bounding box

It's worth noting that just because a way intersects a bounding box in WGS84 it doesn't mean the same way will intersect the same bounding box in mercator. A bounding box bounding box intersection works in some projections but it pulls in a *lot* of excess data and still has issues in some projections.

So even if we make the change as suggested the same behavior will sometimes be found.
