Yes and no. OSM is not just an open database where everything can be stored for any purpose. If you need a billboard with a map as background, we have already this type of application. It's called openstreetbug ([1]). It's used at the moment to pinpoint map errors but it could be easily renewed with another name or temporarily extended to the usage you are looking for. It has to most simple interface, you don't have to register, you can remove the notes when they are solved but they are stored in a separate database.
