shouldn't custom or country specific style be maintained in an external style anyway? there is no good reason to have tiger, opengeodb, …  in the default elemstyle. 
I had a trac ticket for tiger but has never been committed. If there is interest I can provide a patch. But I don't know where the custom style should be placed to make it accessible to anyone. As far as I understand JOSM this would be hosted on an external site and not built in to the program.
