I think there is universal support for this proposal, actually this
proposal:

1.  Force the user to choose a license
2.  Force the user to fill out a field (or more?) indicating the source
3.  Write this on the page: {{msg:<NameOfLicense>}}
4.  Additionally store the license and source information in a separate
database field

Now that we have our wish list, all that is needed is source code!
