I have just added a change to the OSM Inspector which now shows even more
potential coastline errors in the new "Questionable" category.  Questionable
shows coastline rings with possible problems. There are several different kinds
of problems that are shown in this way: a) Coastline rings that touch other
coastline rings in a single point. Those should probably be fixed. b) Coastline
rings having the wrong direction. Those should be fixed. c) Smaller water areas
inside a continent. Those should probably be changed to use natural=water or
similar tags. Use your judgement in all these cases!
