that's excellent, i'll take a look at that, cheers.

in answer to the original question of use case:
i and others are continually adding data to osm in a particular area
which interests us, and using that data in our qgis project. we wish
to keep track of that data and how it relates to other (non-osm) data
in our qgis project. we have found it is easiest to visualise this
within the qgis project.
