Description (last modified by )
When I select a way and a node and do "Join Node to Way" JOSM does nothing. Instead it should warn that I should just select a node.
Actually it should probably support this case and join a node to the selected way.

To anyone reading this: to join a node from a way to another nearby way:
- select node
- select 'Join node to way'
Do not select either of the 2 ways.

Replying to simon04:
Keeping ticket open for implementing the suggested transitional warning message window.
To be discussed in the other ticket …
A transitional message window that looks pretty much like a tooltip and shows up near the top or bottom of the screen would be perfect for these kind of warnings. It should have a little bigger font, come up without getting input focus, be transparent to mouse clicks, and disappear after, say, 5 sec.
Those messages that you have to click on or hit enter to make them go away can be annoying.
