I think this would help with collaborative efforts and catching inaccurate edits.
Herzlich willkommen hier im Forum!
Auf den ersten Blick sieht das nach einer guten Idee aus.
Aber auf den 2. …
Sieh Dir diese Seite an : OSMstats - Statistics of the free wiki world map
Es gibt User mit über 100.000 Änderungen in 2 Monaten. Die würden in e-mails ertrinken.
Es gibt tools, die einen guten Überblick über bestimmte Gegenden verschaffen.
WHODIDIT: OpenStreetMap Changeset Analyzer z.B. (aber es gibt noch andere)
Schau dich mal um, ob da etwas dabei ist, das Deinen Wünschen nahekommt!
Welcome to the forum!
At first glance, this looks like a good idea.
But on the 2nd …
Have a look at this page : OSMstats - Statistics of the free wiki world map
There are users with over 100,000 changes in 2 months. They would drown in e-mails.
There are tools that give a good overview of certain areas.
WHODIDIT: OpenStreetMap Changeset Analyzer for example (but there are others)
Have a look around to see if there’s anything that comes close to what you’re looking for!

Ignoring the email vs website notification issue, and the detection of change (ie moving a node doesn’t bump the way ) , plus assuming this notifies per changeset (instead of 1 notification per object, really?), changeset isn’t the unit that should be looked at. Edits can happen over several changesets. The user will be notified repeatedly. Then you have to decide how to merge those notifications together.
It can only ever be a daily summary. But there’s no reason to discuss it when there’s no official change analyzer, only the Better OSM extension.
There’s 2 perspective of looking at changes. OSMCha has a list of changesets, viewing per-changeset. Aside from its per-changeset capability, Achavi shows the change between different times.

If they find the notifications annoying, given their circumstance, then, presumably, they would be able to disable notifications.
It doesn’t necessarily have to be through emails. There could be a little notification icon on the OpenStreetMap site, or one’s profile when one is logged in.
One could have an option to notifiy only for the first change to their changeset, or object, and not for subsequent.
One could have that option, presumably, but I disagree that it necessarily must be the only option.
Because of the way that OSM edits are available as a constant feed of changes, you could have a go at implementing something like this externally from osm.org itself, and experiment with what level of notifications work.
Separately to that do have a look at the OSM wiki’s QA tool list, which includes some of what you are looking for.
