Sounds as if you've thought of the major issues. Will your multipolygons 
also share a *way* if there are e.g. two administrative boundaries that 
touch each other, or will you create two ways that simply share nodes? 
While the 2nd option is still better than duplicating nodes, the 1st 
option is the preferred way to do it.

That sure is an unusual license for software. Both Creative Commons [0] 
  and the Free Software Foundation [1] generally advise *against* using 
CC-BY-* for software. Unless you have a very specific reason for this 
(and are comfortable with your software not being compatible with most 
other free software), you should perhaps reconsider.
