Sadly the mapper point of view is almost totally missing from that 
discussion. I've understood that is to most valuable resourse we've and
we should try to avoid putting any unnecessary burden on them.

Therefore, everyone needs now to handle those hardly useful layer 
warnings about trivial cases (and waste their time on "correcting" them). 
And in fact, I've wasted some time just on that today while what I'm 
really after is real geometry errors whose fixing would be much much more 
benefial but JOSM validator did not differentiate these two cases for me 
but follows such a bad spec.
