ability to write commit message while working

[richlv]

build 1566.
it would be nice to have a textbox available that would allow the user to write commit message as he works, then, when uploading, commit message field is populated with contents from that textbox. it could be located in the sidebar, maybe toggle-able as other components of the sidebar.

rationale - when editing in josm, i find myself either forgetting all the general change categories, or i open some text editor to keep my notes there, then paste them.

Meanwhile JOSM was changed that the text boxes in the upload dialog were not resetted anymore when you close the upload dialog. (don't find the ticket right now) So now you can click upload add you comment, close the upload dialog and repeat these steps until you actually upload. Is that sufficient?
