Differentiate visual indicators (smileys) in Monitor

[StC-OSM]

Currently, smileys go away when deviations are introduced between the reference and the current state of OSM, or when the route is not continuous. These are two different situations that do not occur at the same rate and do not require the same actions. It would be useful to differentiate them, e.g. with two smiley faces.

Actually, it may be useful to have one smiley face for continuity and one for each reference, allowing to have several references per line. This could be a user-defined configuration for each monitor.

I understand and like the idea of having two separate smileys.

For the second suggestion:

Actually, it may be useful to have one smiley face for continuity and one for each reference, allowing to have several references per line.

@StC-OSM could you perhaps make an example of how the "multiple references per line" would look like (for example: maybe make a new image by copying parts of a screenshot of an existing page, and compose this into what the new page would look like)?

This is an image that I hacked together, but I'm not a designer.

Let me add a usage scenario, that is related to another issue I filed about user accounts.

My contribution to the QA of hiking and cycling routes is mostly about continuity. When in OSM mode the deviations and their impact on the smiley just distract me from my role. If I could I would select the (currently inexistant) NoRef mode, whereas others would make a different choice

If I could I would select the (currently inexistant) NoRef mode,

good idea!
