I don't agree. Either we keep to the license, or we don't. If we
don't, then we don't have a moral right to force others to keep to the
license either. And then we would do better to switch to CC-BY-SA, or
to write our own license that does state what we really want others
and ourselves to do.

If we have the right to publish things under the GFDL as if they were
licensed under CC-BY-SA, then we cannot deny others the right to
republish them under CC-BY-SA either.
