+ * Use bounds as last property of an entry for better overview, as the bounds block is usually the longest.
  * JOSM uses [/maps this] URL to fetch the imagery sources. The URL can be customized in the advanced preferences (key {{{imagery.layers.sites}}}). Using multiple sources at the same time is possible.
  * Normally JOSM ignores any elements that it does not recognize. However, it will skip the entire imagery entry, when one of the unsupported tags has the attribute {{{mandatory='true'}}}. This is only relevant, when essential new features are added, but old versions of JOSM are still in use.
