This presents a problem (though not insurmountable) for edits I have made 
in my area. I have generally left tiger:* tags in place when adding tags to 
a node. These include railroad crossings, memorial street naming signs, 
gates, and addresses. In addition to naming or other tags, I add 
source_ref=[my photo #] 
and 
source=survey;image{;usgs_imagery;|yahoo_imagry;}{;local_government|;FRA|;CPUC}. 
I don't want to lose these source tags.

I wanted to mention it quickly before reading the discussion, which I will 
do now, and post back if there is any change.
