I think pointing people to jXAPI could work, or one thing. And, the whole 'unofficial third party sources' bit isn't that strong; planet.osm.orgpoints to third-party sources, and so does the wiki. In short, they exist and are useful, and I think it makes sense to reduce the number of logical leaps you need to take to get from A to B, because I'd assume a ton of people are getting lost along the way.
