Solved!
At least for now...

Changeset: http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/22071440

I suppose I hit the same problem as you, Glenn: JOSM wasn't recognizing
that the data was changed.
But that was because I removed these characters in the OSM file itself, not
inside JOSM.
The solution was to add the attribute action="modify" to each object in the
file before opening it in JOSM. (I did this with a VIM macro)
