It has zero chance to be passed. As it happened with the global rollback vote, a bunch of en.wp users just would show up and vote against it does not matter what. Just because an idea that an admin on a different project can block a en.wp user apparently seems to be unbearable.
Considering that I would be equally apalled by having an administrative action from enwiki forced upon me, I cannot say that I'm surprised. Different projects have different standards and all that.

I think it should be clear of the context in which this thread has developed- that of obviously offensive or disruptive usernames; I have only this evening seen accounts auto-created on en:wiki by a known vandal that have obviously been created on other wikis in the hope that somehow they will slip under the radar. I've blocked on en-wiki, but that does not stop the perpetrator vandalising other wikis right now. My suggestion of an automated request to globally block remains; it would still be up to the stewards on Meta to decide.
Cheers.
