<pre>Great to see that feature being worked on. I'm not a programmer, so I can't comment on the source quality, but I'd like to comment on the wording of the button.
I think that "&Edit Map Externally" is not a good phrase. I think plain "&Edit Map" is sufficient and while the map is technically edited with an external app, the full phrase sounds (to me at least) a bit awkard and discouraging.
If you think that the users should be warned that an external app will open (I don't think that's necessary) a message box could notify the user the first time (s)he clicks on the button.</pre>

<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0;">Adds an "Edit Map Externally" menu item in the main application (currently Qt only) that does either:
- open a web browser using potlatch (flash based osm builtin map editor) at the current view (default)
- execute josm or merkaartor (whichever is enabled in settings)
- update a running josm or merkaartor if they opened a server at localhost:8111
The choice which application to use (potlatch, josm, merkaartor) is left to the user. A running server is detected automatically if josm or merkaartor is selected by the user. The default choice is potlatch because it will be usable for most users out of the box (requirements are a web browser with flash support).
Most of the implementation is done in ControlView, i.e. outside lib/, but easily shareable between qt and kde main applications. I can implement it in its own class if you think it clutters ControlView too much.
The edit button is visible always currently. It may be better to hide it for map views other than openstreetmap to avoid confusing users.
Please note that josm and merkaartor should not be too outdated, especially for their server applications.

<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0;">Tested with konqueror for potlatch. Tested Merkaartor 0.16.1. Merkaartor 0.16.0 may work (not tested), older versions lack the server. Tested josm version 3329. Note that you need to enable the server explicitly for merkaartor (tools => settings => network) and josm (edit => preferences => plugins, install and enable the remotecontrol plugin)</pre>
