Garlic Mustard is one of my favorite wild edibles... so much so that I have been tempted to plant it. But, I haven't for the reasons you mentioned. I don't know... I may transplant some into some containers someday.
Some people might say you were spared, because they will, at least for a period of time inhibit some of the native plants, till things re-equilibrate.
I believe that they require a significant cold snap to complete their biennial cycle, they're a zone 4-8 plant. There are a couple zones in Australia where they might make it if you receive the 'gift'.
Not sure if we have these in Aus. Havent seen any of them around at all.

Ya, since you truly cook, you would be able to really apply this plant.
Probably garlic mustard can be a worse issue in the woodlands for such low growing plants as the trillium and cutleaf toothwort, etc.
