Description (last modified by )
The offset database with the plugin (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Imagery_Offset_Database) are very helpful to reduce systematic errors introduced by skewed aerial imagery (most notably Bing).
Even as an halfway experienced contributor I do occasionally forget to activate it, there was also a recent discussion on the talk-de mailing list about the possibilities.
I could imagine following approach: when activating Imagery/Bing, present the user with the following dialog:
- download imagery offset from database
- correct offset manually
- ignore for now
- ignore allways
