Hm. I think you may be on to something here that we could all agree with; I 
get the simplicity and internal copy/paste harmony within Wikimedia that I 
want, and Toby et al get to redistribute any Wikimedia material under the CC 
Att/SA. 

But will it work? Could we wholesale relicense all Wikimedia content under the 
LFDL if FDL 2.0 said we could?
