yes this is important. don't tag nodes if they have no other tags. will just
increase the DB size with no value. imports did this and bots have cleaned
up so good to stick with it

much better for a simple reason. anyone can delete the source tag form an
object. having it on the changeset is as visible as having it on the object
itself. only history of object will show it. And think about it is it still
the same source if user A uploads a gpx and user B des adjustments with
Yahoo, user C adjusts based on topo map ...
adding a chain of source isn't useful at all
