Allow splitting multiple ways with one press

[ff5722]

When adding bridges or tunnels to motorways or railroads, it's often required to split ways, currently this has to be done for each parallel way separately, it would be convenient to allow the user to split them at once.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Select multiple ways, for example parallel highways.
2. Press Ctrl+P/Tools>Split way
3. 'The selected nodes do not share the same way'

What is the expected result?

Allow the user (at least in expert mode) to split multiple ways in one selection at once

What happens instead?

Warning 'The selected nodes do not share the same way'

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible.

-1: This saves only one key but adds lots of possible conflicts when nodes are shared by ways.

Replying to GerdP:

-1: This saves only one key but adds lots of possible conflicts when nodes are shared by ways.

Would it be possible to limit it to ways that don't have shared nodes? Or, cycle through individual ways in the code, apply the action and move on the the next way, and limit it to for example 4 ways.

[GerdP]

Everything is possible. The problematic part is the handling of a cancel. Assume you have ways which are members in relations. If you cycle through mulltiple ways and decide that you made an error in the selection when the 2nd way is split what should happen? Rollback everything or only the action for the last way? No matter what you answer it requires a lot of new code with new warnings or notifications for a very small benefit.
