In the long run, both OSM surveyed data and imported data are "dead" 
data. Over the course of years people come and go. We need to get used 
to the idea of maintaining a data set for which the original surveyor is 
no longer participating. The alternative is to resurvey the whole planet 
every decade from scratch.
