Description
Dear all,
I've ben using the import command of remote control API to load some data from Overpass in a new data layer.
As my query involved a BBox, I expected JOSM to be able to set it in the resulting data layer, just like we see when we download data from main API.
But it sounds normal JOSM doesn't catch it as the Overpass query is serialized in the URL parameter sent through the remote control.
It would not be an option to extrapolate it from resulting data as results don't necessarily cover the whole BBox.
Would it be acceptable to add optional top, bottom, left and right parameters to the import command, just like load_and_zoom one to set a boundary in the resulting data layer please?
I looked at older ticket to see if such a feature had already been asked but didn't found anything related so far. Sorry for noise if it has already been discussed.
Best regards
