It would also stop being free software, unless I'm missing something. 

Whether you agree with the AGPL or not, it's a hack put in place because
a user is never the recipient of a copy of (e.g.) a web app. If you have
a copy of a free app, you're free to use and modify it however you
please without having to redistribute it.

As you point out, the GPLv2 incompatibility rules this out on practical
grounds anyway.

Cheers,

Alex.
