If this is only applicable to "new data", why not upload that to a
separate server, and later import it into OSM as necessary?

I'm not even sure that any contribution to OSM can really be called
"new data", as most "new" data will be "created with reference to a
point Y that was share-alike licensed and thus becomes a derived work"
- as Frederik pointed out.
