Well, the interesting thing is, I just was looking for the FDL on the FSF's website. If there is any question about what we should do on a wiki to meet the FDL's requirements and want "I agree to be credited as 'a Wikipedia contributor' (or collectively as 'various Wikipedia contributors')", perhaps we should start by emulating what I see here:
Hm, I think there would be some resistance to attributing copyright for edits to the Wikimedia Foundation, even if it does grant editors back all their rights.
I don't see that such an attribution would accomplish much; however, appointing WMF as agent for pursuing copyright violations by outsiders could have benefits for everyone. Such actions are only likely if the violations are on a massive scale, but on such occasions we would not want to be held back by questions about who has the right to sue.
