Download members in Edit relation should download relations those members participate in

[flo@…]

When editing large boundarys i typically download some nodes of an existing boundary. Click on the relation and download the members so i have the county/country/community completely loaded.
The problem now is that one can not easily now edit this boundary as splitting would invalidate
/break other boundarys which share some ways. It would break because the splitted way
will not be added to those relations as they are not loaded.

My suggestion would be to download all relations those members also participate in. Then we'd have the complete relations and splitting ways would not destroy those.

This probably could also be linked to ticket #662

Thanks

Since r1806 there is a new feature in the relation editor. You can download the parent(s) of a relation, i.e. all relations referring to a particular relation.

This is probably not exactly what you are looking for but it might already help.

Loading the parent relations for ways and nodes would help - The problem is that i load all members of a relation (typically boundary) to see the full extent of my boundary. Then i add ways inbetween but i need to split
the loaded ways. To make shure the relations dont break i need to load all relations of those ways so that both
ways (after the split) get added - Currently i zoom in and load the node where i'd like to split again with the normal download - This is really annoying as typically boundary run along other objects so loading a little snippet loads road, forrest and other stuff one doesnt need ... I would rather like to have a button to make my dataset loaded consistent at first so i dont need to worry ...

In r1810 there is a new "File -> Download referrers action ..."

1. in the relation editor select the members whose referrers you want to download
2. launch "File -> Download referrers action ..."
