I wonder if there is also a use for them for fixing up poor quality 
armchair mapping of building outlines.  I don't think that is 
automatable, but I wonder if there are any tools that assist with 
manually applying improved geometries to existing ways and nodes.  In 
particular, I don't like delete and re-add, so I would want a single 
polygon outline to retain the same identity, any tagged nodes associated 
with it also to retain the same identity, and, as far as possible 
untagged nodes to be re-used in topologically equivalent locations.
