And yet Richard, Greg, and Dale all said that removing  
tiger:reviewed=no implies pretty much two things: the name is right  
(more or less) and the location is right (more or less).  I think that  
perhaps we can agree on that.

But I also think that we need better data verification tools.  For  
example, I'd like JOSM to be able to tell me whether one area is  
routable from another.  Maybe if there was a plugin which let you  
select a node, and  it would color all the rest of the nodes   
depending on their route distance from the selected node?  That would  
probably make it painfully obvious where the routing was failing.
