My point is that we could reach a compromise between no false positives and 
computing time.

Besides, computing a bbox is O(n) (n being the number of nodes affected by the 
changeset) and a convex hull is O(n log(n)), which isn't that bad.


Geez, I do need to improve my computational geometry skills ASAP. There is 
just so much cool stuff to be done.

This whole 0.6 changeset stuff just turned into "ITO OSM mapper is dead, long 
live ITO OSM mapper!" :-P
