Now there's a thought ... what if each textbook project decides for itself depending on its own estimation of its needs? If a project decides wrongly, then only it has to start over. Sitewide policy can be submitted to the public domain, or kept under GFDL for copying from Wikipedia.
I think that it would be very unpractical. Keeping everything GFDL makes us bidirectionally compatibe with Wikipedia. Changing license to something else breaks that link.
