I think this is really unworkable: what is a "truly Free license"?
For instance, I personally consider the GNU GPL v2 as a recommendable
license, while I consider the CC-by-sa-v3.0 as a non-free license.
Your opinions may significantly differ. The opinions of other people
will sure differ.
The only way a copyleft mechanism may actually work is that, when it
kicks in, it mandates the adoption of the *same* license (or, at most,
a limited set of alternative licenses, if explicit conversion clauses
are in place).
