I assumed this to be a mandatory part of the new process. However, some
recent edits made by a "Serbian OSM Lint bot" [1] via your tool
indicates that you can skip pretty much all of those safeguards, and
still be able to run mass updates without any kind of voting, two user
agreement, etc. Not sure, if this is intentional, or a bug.

Also, this seems to be optional:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/53753685 has task_id =
"undefined" and was editing via Sophox 0.5. Isn't this case handled in
your tool to forbid creating such changesets in the first place?
