Strictly speaking the user could give Nearmap non-exclusive rights to
their edits and in turn Nearmap gives the same rights to OSM when the
data is uploaded. That said I've been in a similar situation about
people not wanting to create an account to use a POI mapping app I
created for mobile phones, in that case I didn't take the easy way out
and have a single account for all edits, but it's very temping to do
things that way.
