Once it is published, can't it just go to Wikisource? Or would it have to be
CC-By or something like that. If so, Wikisource would still be the best
suited for that, we would just have to put it in a journal namespace or
something along that line.

Free content is going to capture science eventually-- scientists want
open content too badly for the research journal monopoly to last
forever. The only question is-- how can WM help ignite this
revolution waiting to happen? If we're really lucky, can we ourselves
be the home to the successor of the for-profit journal system.
Academic peer-review is a rather un-wiki process. Possibly a first
step is encouraging arXiv-like preprint archives for other fields -
arXiv has become pretty much *the* first place to stake out your
credit in physics.
