I uploaded files to https://github.com/matkoniecz/objects_for_deletion <https://github.com/matkoniecz/objects_for_deletion> and linked in

For now just file with all nodes in .osm file (can be opened with JOSM - File | Open menu).
As it is limited to nodes it works fairly well and can be browsed without performance issues.

I uploaded also file with objects very far away from 42, -73 deleted but it turned out to produce 
larger file, probably JOSM recorded deletions.

I can produce later something more user friendly if that would be useful and .osm files are too complicated
- let me know if that would be useful!
