Thank you :)

Yes. This is useful, if you want to make hand-made changes to the map
before compiling. JOSM doesn't delete things, it marks them
action='delete'. I found no other (easy) way to ignore these, than to
patch splitter for it.

My own code has a private boolean deleted that is added to SplitParser,
and in endElement() it says "if (!deleted) {writeNode(currentNode);}",
while in startElement I check for attributes.getValue("action") in case
of "way" and "node" (didn't bother to check "relation" but I think I
should have).

But as I said before, my code is too horrible to share. And maybe the
places where I check and do things are wrong, too.
