#17320 closed enhancement

Allow boundary=* to share an OSM way with highway=*, waterway=* and other ways — at Version 4

Description (last modified by Hb---)

It is common that an administrative border runs in the middle of a waterway. But if a boundary and a waterway are tagged on the same OSM way, then the JOSM validator warns about "Overlapping ways".

This warning should not show up in case of waterways boundarys.

Hmm, yes, I would go one step further: in my eyes this test should ignore all overlaps ways where an administrative boundary is involved.

I actually like this warning to find duplicate ways. Is there a way to keep it, even if at informational level?

Yes, the patch just changes the default values for preference overlapping-ways.ignored-keys
