it's more a workflow or an ergonomic problem :

Example 1
yesterday, I tested the Rapid beta in a village that is far
from having a high level of detail (95% of hedges are not yet 
documented, the same for trees)
the screen was so overloaded that it was not easy to see
the proposed additions at village level
I simply hide the unwanted layers (sat imagery, osm data)
to display only the "MapWithIA" layer allowing me to easily see
what I was looking for, zoom in on it before reactivating
the desired layers.

example 2
with josm, when I import buildings from an opendata source,
I often load only the buildings at first, I add what I want.
It is only at the end that I display all the data in order
to have the tests of coherence between the various type of object.
because even if you imagine a building database, you will have
to load the road database to check that there is not an alignment 
problem or to connect the building entrances to the relevant roads,
you will need the tree layer to check that the tree existing before
the building is not erroneously located inside the building

requesting a new base every time someone adds a theme would
also be very contradictory with any tag you like

Regards,
Marc
