As a developer of both editing and rendering software, such data 
structures are troublesome. I dislike multipolygons with multiple 
disjunct outers both as a mapper & as a developer. I have had to abandon 
edits when warned that I was about to break a multipolygon with 999 
other members. How can one know what that structure is if one cannot see 
it all in a feasible JOSM download?
