How do these things actually look?
If we have a good way of detecting them, and a target way we want them
to look, I'd be happy to get them fixed in the JOSM validator.
I already have my own private copy that "just works" in stitching the
streets together at the edge of counties, and unsharing some nodes that
shouldn't be shared. I detect the node unsharing by looking for places
where "motorway" touches non-motorways.
I also managed to detect all the places where the TIGER "motorway_link"
ways touch non-motorways and auto-fix them.
My copy of JOSM:

I'm also working on splitting up those large patches into more
manageable chunks.
