I would put source=NPE;survey but nobody really expects the source tag to be
a bomb-proof, legally sound way to determine the source of an object.  It is a
hint at best.  Looking at changeset history is better (if people documented
what they were doing in the changeset comment, and the edits don't predate the
introduction of changesets to the API).  So I think it's okay in practice;
the contents of the source tag doesn't make any real difference to the map
or to its legal status.
