ODbL's Produced Work is a well thought out answer to this and I would
certainly not support OSM moving to any licence that did not retain such a
concept.

A hack that might address this is allowing BY-SA to apply either to the database or to its contents. If it applied to the contents, both the share-alike and the attribution would apply to extracts from the database. If it applied to the database, only the attribution requirement would apply to extracts. The latter would approximate the ODbL. BY-SA on the DB with CC0 on the content would approximate ODbL/DbCL.

The contract element would be lost, though, despite the fact that contract law makes more sense for a "share-alike" licence than a "copyleft" one.
