Support for multiple tags on changeset.
It was suggested in old redmine bug 3339, by Jonathan Bennett:
The API supports an arbitrary number of tags on changesets, but Merkaartor currently only allows the user to enter a description. Could a tag editor be added to the upload dialog?
I have found only one instance of tag that makes sense, and that is source=*; is there some other use case for this feature?
There are several other tags:
- https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Changeset#Tags_on_changesets
- https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/changeset_tags
Second link says "Wherever and whenever possible, editor softwares (or plugin software) should try to add those tags automatically."
For some tags this is possible, e.g. created_by
or imagery_used
. Other tags need to be filled manually. I think that a tag editor as suggested originally would be best. Merkaartor could auto fill some values (e.g. created_by
) and let the user add/modify others. Auto completion for common keys or key-value pairs could be added too.
