Description (last modified by )
Suppose you have a relation (e.g. bicycle or bus) with way members ordered as segments of the route, e.g.:
A - B - C
The segments are ordered to form a continuous connected line.
Now you use "split way" action on way B into B1 and B2.
Sometimes it happens that the segments land in the relation as:
A ++ B2 - B1 ++ C (++ being spots where the line gets disconnected), thus the segments are not ordered into a continuous line.
then I have to reorder them to A - B1 - B2 - C to become continuous again.
Could JOSM detect that segments are ordered (it already does so in the relation editor) and fix the ordering automatically? Otherwise people are unknowingly breaking relations and I often find relations across the country where just moving one member up/down one position fixes the ordering.

Replying to aceman:
Can you give a step by step instruction how to reproduce
A ++ B2 - B1 ++ C?
