That would be a really cool feature!

I used to create height relief maps from srtm contour lines with
mkgmap (see http://img30.imageshack.us/img30/9595/img0854oj.jpg) but I
had to close all lines around the tile borders manually in josm...

If this worked, we could create height relief maps for any place automatically!
