    I've not done much with JOSM filters, even when working with messy 
landuse or administrative boundaries.  This is because they often share 
nodes with a road (or whatever) that I need to edit.   Hiding the 
underlying object can easily result in a self-crossing polygon.   So 
actually, that's an argument for having such things to a separate data 
space where the data consumer can mash them up.
