The date in the history is the date that the modified object is stored in osm. When I did a number of surveys in the same area a week or a month before, this modification date is "useless" to find back my notes. Just having a survey:date on the changeset allows me to pinpoint the date of the surve

My issue with putting the source=* is that different tags are added at different times show it should really be source:item=* (e.g. source:max_speed=sign) and then the survey date would also need to be tag specific too (e.g. survey:max_speed=*) . That could be a lot of tags which are unlikely t
