Importing single nodes its not a bad thing, we made a similar import of
spanish fuel stations and schools.

By the way, its difficult to check if there is another fuel station in the
same zone. In our case we imported everything and sent a message to the mailing 
list asking people to check the fuel stations near. 

The question, its more about the license of the source rather than the import.
