Unable to Select Multiple Nodes [NullPointerException]

[skorasaurus]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Open an .OSM file (specifically 15.5mb) - ​http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17003223/filtered.osm
2. Select multiple existing nodes in the .osm file that that are neither connected to each other nor to another way in a specific .OSM file.

What is the expected result? I attempt to select multiple nodes that are neither connected to each other nor to another way in a specific .OSM file. and expect to be able to select them and change their properties.

Note: This bug only applies to nodes existing in the .osm file. If I create 2 new nodes in the same .osm file, I am able to change those 2 nodes' properties without any bugs.

Note 2: This .OSM was imported from an extract at geofabrik and I then extracted more data from osmosis. The attached OSM file is the output from osmosis.

What happens instead?
