Description (last modified by )
I'm currently mapping Fujimino (Saitama, Japan). In there, there are (like in most Japanese cities) a lot of neighborhoods called “1-banchi”, that are distinguished by the “X-chome”-type relation they have for parent, which are themselves distinguished by the (named) quarter relation they have for parent (and the parent of the quarter is the city).
As a consequence, in the relation list, I have currently about 10 relations named “1-banchi”, which makes for a pretty hard-to-use list.
Would it be possible to show the relation name the displayed relation is memberOf? (and preferentially recursively up to the root, here Japan I guess, and potentially limiting to subarea-type membership-ness)
Alternatively, would it be possible to show a “full_name” tag, when one exists, in which I could put the whole “Fujimino Kiyomi 1-chome 1-banchi” address?
Anyway, thank you for the work you do on JOSM!

I guess it's a bit specific indeed, but as Japanese addresses will get mapped it will likely become the norm here. (Currently there are almost no address mapped as far as I can tell.)
Here are the two requested files. The main difficulty is when wanting to look for relation eg. Fujimino Kiyomi 1-chome 1-banchi, then I have to either go to the Fujimino relation and get down three times, every time opening a new window, or test all 1-banchi relations until I figure out thanks to highlighting which one is the right one.
Unfortunately, that's not very helpful.
(For the context, one Banchi is approximately a block, and addresses are attributed as house numbers inside the block in Japan, hence the need for it in order to map addresses.)
Anyway, thank you for reading me!

That seems to me a bit too specific and a change would maybe worsen the situation in other contexts. Could you please add a sample data set (.osm file) and a screenshot showing the problem?
