What would we actually scan on it? When we've

Not many. The only PD works of that size that are held by wikipedians
that I'm
aware of are some OS maps and some medical images.
If something does come up a setup that allowed a DSLR (quite a few
wikimedians with those) to be placed above the item in order to
photograph it would be an adequate solution in most cases.
