Could we use something similar to detect generic vandalism by training on
reverted changesets? Many of them have "this changeset was reverted fully
or in part..." comments. Also, analyzing object history or detecting
created_by=reverter;JOSM * would give you more examples to train on.

* Unfortunately this persists for the whole JOSM session, so there will be
some false positives.
