actually, it wouldn't be terribly hard for me to knock together a
simple web page for looking up/entering zip code to city mappings,
so i think i'll look into doing that. anyone who wants to save up
shopping/credit card receipts so that they can enter the data should
feel encouraged to do so. it may not happen right away because i'm
pretty busy with other admin boundary stuff, but i'll try to have it
in a week or two.

if i include existing OSM zip->city mappings, it would need to be ODbL.
some geocoder projects insist on public domain data (will CC0 do for
these geocoders?) this is a detail that would need to be worked out.
