I agree that the edit restrictions on the WMF wiki are very unfortunate and there's still much more that can be done (perhaps one day leading toward www.wikimedia.org as a single information, collaboration and discussion hub, subsuming both WMF and Meta, and possibly other backstage wikis).
Perhaps have Meta: Strategy:, Outreach: Usability:, Tech:, and Wikimania*: namespaces to replace the separated sites in existence today. The main space could cover wikimediafoundation.org content. Wikimedia: for meta-wiki discussion. Or any variation on that. At the least, there is no need to keep creating new wikis for Wikimania if you properly tag content for the year it applies to.

Here, here, for the namespace solution!
Yes!

My solution to the challenge of combining everything would be to have a global edit sprint -- "meta-cleanup-and-merge editing party weekend!"
This sounds like a perfect topic for a barnraising.
