it seems as osmosis escapes some characters with backslashes

  • a semicolon gets \s
  • a backslash gets \
  • i found also a \e but do not know its original character

this is a problem, as some users are using this osmosis output as an input for their edits and therefore the \s gets into the osm database where it is expanded to \s in the next round and so on.

osmosis should revert these escaped characters to their original characters before they appear in the output.

  • the equal sign (=) becomes \e

Please provide an example file that does this because I can't repeat the bug.
