Would it better to collect all errors in the catalogue, and then
periodically send them to OS? I know that I would rather receive one
email with 100 actions than 100 emails with 1 action. Or worse,
multiple emails for the same action.

It may also help improve the image of OSM by acting in a coordinated manner.
