come on, I think you are overexxagerating this. Have a look how apple handles attribution. They distribute a big blob and a separate (hard to find) text file that says: contains data of a, b, c, ...., z, aa, bb, cc, ..., zz, aaa, bbb, ........ They don't even tell you where they use which data source. ;-) I am not advocating to act accordingly, but saying that in every data extract there must be full history (that is also attribution, to see who edited the stuff), or changeset information, or source-tags , or a source-tag on every single object might not be necessary. IMHO you also retain attribution if you say: data from openstreetmap.org and on openstreetmap.org you get all the necessary attribution info (e.g. in the wiki, from the API with changeset-comments, etc.). It was already in the past like this: someone who imports stuff with osm2pgsql almost never retains this information (as long as he works with the standard style file).
