i think it's a very good idea. I would make that link point to a page explaining about OSM concept, that it's not a WMF project, they need a separate account, what things are acceptable, etc. Preferably, I would make that wallpage at OSM side, in that way that it wouldn't appear if it was a logged in OSM user (not just for old-OSMers, but also for wikipedians which create an account and then go editing through several articles).
Getting this right will be a little tricky, but probably key to making this work acceptably for wikipedia users.
I don't yet know if such a functionality could be included into OpenStreetMap's page (currently it doesn't yet exist), but I'll try and find out if such a thing would at least theoretically be possible. If it would make sense and there is a good concept / design for it, I could try and write a patch for such a functionality.
Heh. It *is* implementable. I don't know the code used by OSM, by it should be quite easy to change.
