Having been through the great license shift in
OpenStreetMap, I think we should use cc0 as

any tool should demand cc0, but of course that
will be the choice of the tool developer.
For what it's worth, I disagree. I think by default tools should
suggest attribution licenses (e.g. CC-BY). Copyleft (e.g. CC-BY-SA)
makes sense for many works too, though it may not be necessary for one word.
Attribution is not too much to ask for. Most big works already have an
attribution page somewhere.
