Description
In /applications/editors/josm/plugins/validator/tagchecker.cfg the following line (69):
way : I : highway != * && railway != * && waterway != * && name == * # unusual named way type
causes the information warning "unusual named way type" to be generated for every way that is not a highway, railway or waterway, including many natural phenomena (such as lakes), buildings etc.; features that it is very valid (and not at all unusual) to give a name.
In fact I would think that it would be a better approach to list the types of ways that it would in fact be unusual to give a name rather than the opposite. But lacking such a list, I would rather this check disappeared entirely.
