What you mean is that you don't require that the importer corrects the fixmes 
before the upload ? And that it should be corrected on the long run ?
Then I'd say most of the highway in OSM could have a :
fixme=please specify the width of this highway
but we don't do it ;-)

Then you don't need a fixme, but a QA tool to list the parking spaces 
currently in OSM not yet having a access=private/public
Noone will forget to remove the fixme if the correction is done because it is 
determined by the new added access tag.
(See pieren's comment about osmose)

It depends how your community welcome the information in osm "here is a 
parking space, but we don't know yet if that is public or private"

KITTEN_WILL_DIE.osm

That could be valid if your import chain is meant to be :
"Correct all the fixmes before the upload, or don't upload" but I guess that 
isn't the case ?
However, if your goal is this, then I understand the fixmes are just a "JOSM 
enlightening trick" to be removed before the upload, then your import tool 
chain becomes different and yes you can provide un-uploadable osm files 
(maybe with positive ids in it + version=1) that people need to send back to 
moderators who check for no fixme in it and re-convert to uploadable form.
But that is more complex.
