One concern: what about copyright notices? Won't they still need to be

notices are legally optional.


They're still required by the license, though.

Yes, I thought that. BY-SA-2.0 4c says:

You must keep intact all copyright notices for the Work

But possibly if there are no copyright notices to start with (and as Greg points out they are optional) then you don't need to keep them intact. :-)
