How about "this /feature type/ in this /region/ will never have a community".
Great. Then this feature type will not be maintained and should not be rotting away in OSM!
It may also be "this feature type in this region/ already has a community, it is just not OpenStreetMap/.... but maybe we could could work together?".
Great. Then ways should be found to work together on the map creation level - make a map that shows our data and their data. Do not try to import their data into OSM.
And don't neglect to check in on the community forming around the most import-heavy dataset of all: Google MapMaker.
Until now I haven't heart much good about that community but maybe a few million $$ can really buy you one. Until we have those few million $$, let's not try to synthesize communities out of thin air.
