Just to check: was it containing any third-party data where 
"the licence explicitly excludes rights in third party data and therefore you 
need to take the same steps as you would for CC0 licenced material. "
would cause it to become unsuitable for OSM use?

See

StreetComplete would suffer from the same issue, though there is some benefit from tagging noname=yes

Sounds like something doable, but for me it goes onto a big pile of "nice idea, not enough free time"
for now. 

Also, licence issue would need to be confirmed to be not existing (has somebody did a review
who makes this data? Is there even any third party data there?)
