I guess you are aware of other discussions about this topic, e.g. here:
https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/22384/highlight-untagged-and-unconnected-nodes-in-a-way
and here (with further pointers to QM tools etc.):
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Untagged_unconnected_node

unfortunately it doesn't look as if there was a command line tool, and
honestly for big files I can't imagine how this could work (you'll have to
have some kind of temp. storage like a file or a database to keep track of
all the nodes). Walking through all the ways and relations for every single
node to check if it is used seems excessive ;-)

cheers,
Martin
