available, some sort of tracing background layer, or else a per object
import where you could load the data in your editor of choice and
manually select how they go in?

Yes ... especially for 'large' imports. Looking at it from a content
management perspective, for large imports, enabling some sort of reference
--> tracing --> staging --> review --> publish capability would be
desirable, since unwinding anything after the fact seems to be very
difficult. It would make it much less scary folks. Depending on the license
status, potentially a dataset could be locked (or available as tiles) for
trace only if adequate permissions were not in place, or pending.
