If you let users upload from your application you will have to implement 
a lot of things that an editor will have to do. You will have to do 
proper OAuth2 authentication, you will have to give the user the option 
of creating a changeset comment, you will need to allow conflation with 
existing data (=not creating duplicates) and for that you will want to 
show existing data. Much more work on your end.
