These changes have already been agreed upon by the FSF Board. :-) Progress is already moving on the FSF end to finalize & publish the relevant changes.
- WMF is saying "sure we'll look at it if you make the licenses compatible"
Actually, more like: "We're very happy that you're moving forward in the direction we've been discussing with you; in general, there is Board-level agreement that we need to resolve the issue of license interoperability and license complexity, and this specific path -- as opposed to some others that have been considered -- is the one we'd like to ask our community to review."
I do believe it's principally only the step of community approval that could be a real hurdle in relicensing Wikimedia projects to use CC-BY-SA.
