Hi Thomas, Unfortunately I think it will be considered necessary (I don't agree with this either, it's a nuisance to have to switch accounts all the time, but my opinion and that of thousands of others is irrelevant).
Anyway, if you created a JOSM plugin it can take care of the account switching for you. I did something like that when I was helping with an import of schools in Uganda. I coded it in Python, using the scripting plugin: https://github.com/PolyglotOpenstreetmap/Python-scripts-to-automate-JOSM/blob/master/UseWDTKtoCreateWDitems.py The account switching happens all the way in the end around line 571. All the rest is preparation work and cleanup/correction of erroneous names. I don't know whether this can also be made to work when using OAuth. I went back to cleartext password authentication back then. Oh and yes you need to document the import, if only so people can find a trace to the written permission for OSM you mentioned.
