* `Shift` to remove only a way segment. The remaining parts of the way are split apart.
* `Alt` to spare the nodes of a way. These nodes will remain even when they are unused.
* `Ctrl` to **additionally** delete all objects which reference the selected object without further warning, relations included. \\
 The definition of ''reference'' is:
  * a node references all ways it is connected to 
  * an object references all relations it is member of 
  * a simple way which is not a member of a relation has no references.

My questions:
* `Ctrl` in **addition** to what?
* What is the escpected behaviours resp. limitations of `Shift`/`Alt`/`Ctrl` combinations?
* `Ctrl` also spare the nodes of a way. Is this correct behaviour? If yes, the statement ""These nodes will remain even when they are unused."" should be also there there.

It would be great to enter the open questions directly into the wiki instead of answering them here..."	task	new	normal		Wiki content			delete mode	stoecker skyper
