Description
When removing a tag (via object property panel) from a way the behaviour is as expected as long as the way has more than one tag. However, when removing the last or only tag, the object (way) itself is removed.
This may have been reasonable from some point of view before multipolygons were introduced, but now the outer way of a multipolygon should usually not have a tag (unless to describe properties that apply to the hole area including any holes), while the inner may or may not have tags.
Works correctly and there is also no indication in code that it could be wrong.
You must be careful to keep focus in the properties dialog when you use delete key, as delete key removes object in main map view.
