Not that I know of (please correct me if otherwise), but I think it
would be possible to download the daily diffs and have a script check
for edits within a certain area. Anyone here worked with the diffs
before?

But does anyone else have the problem that, if you view edits within a
certain area, it's so often filled up with bots (or sometimes users)
doing global bug fixes? Reduces the usefulness of area-based history.
It looks like OSM only looks at the bounding box and not if there's
actually an edit from that changeset in your view.
