[OSM-talk-be] It was only a matter of time ...

It's quite likely he doesn't know what a multipolygon is. iD creates those
for the user when they "merge" areas. That merging is meant to make holes
in areas.

So I guess he merges some form with another form, and iD creates a
multipolygon without the user knowing it.

The realigning of course is his fault, and I hope in the near future we can
just point them to use MapBox (which will use Agiv imagery). Since
copy-pasting a TMS url to iD for every session is a bit tedious.

(btw, I reached 95% completeness on my town, 8840, the remaining ~165 are
mostly unclear addresses and some plain mistakes that need to be reported
to Agiv, so that will be a slow 5%. Most of the reports I made were solved
rather quickly so far.)

Regards,
Sander
