I realise this isn't a new topic, so feel to point me to
further/background reading...

but what are the implications and legal subtleties of the difference
between the licenses used on WV (GNU Free) and WE (CC Attribution)?

I would like to prepare a proforma letter to send to owners of copyright
material which I use in my teaching (e.g., an image in a presentation),
requesting permission for them to release the IP into a free culture
license which would it to be uploaded into Wiki Commons or elsewhere as
appropriate. My hunch is that > 50% could give permission.

If there is such a letter you know of or can share, please let me know.

Obviously it would be important for such a letter to cover all
conceivable licensing contingencies.

Is the solution to dual-license materials? And could that be done,
practically?
