water key

[jphilipz]

Would like to suggest the addition of the water key and its values and possibly presets.

​http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:water

I wanted to suggest that there be a means of moving a node that is attached to the end of one way and part of a secondary way, along the secondary way without it effecting the secondary way's path. I would like to suggest the shift key as the trigger to this (as the shift key in photoshop is used for a similar type of control over drawing a square selection). I would like to also suggest that the ctrl key be used as a trigger to move the entire secondary way according to the movements of the selected node. This would help alot, so i wouldnt need to go to every node of the secondary way to adjust its location.

Wanted to also suggest an intuitive snap when a drag the end node of a highway way to another way. Presently, i simply add another node to the way to attach it and then delete the previous node.

Note: two separate request should be in two separate tickets.

This is bad editing, please always merge nodes instead of deleting an existing one and creating a new one.

In JOSM simply press Ctrl and move one node over the other to merge them.

And please open a separate ticket for each request/defect. - Thank
