For fear of oversimplification, perhaps we should look at this problem in the light of AC being 'Open Source' and that we all (at least have the opportunity to) contribute, edit, mod, etc.
In this context, any map made for AC becomes a part of AC, open for us all to (at least have the opportunity to) contribute, edit, mod, etc.
I dunno. I know I've largely ignored the OP, and I apologise for my lack of legal knowledge, but this could be a nice way to look at it.
—PS, Despite what I've said, DEKiMA, I do share your horror at plagiarism, but i do love collaboration, especially when it turns out to be as brilliant as this game is.
