While this may sound nice, it would open the new problem that

But isn't it the case that GPLv3 has far fewer restrictions (is more CDDL
like) than GPLv2?
It has fewer restrictions, but it still does not explicitly allow to merge
code that is under another OSI aproved license. And even iff, one important
reason for creating the CDDL was to allow to merge with CSS code as Sun
did tell us this was needed in order to be able to create Sun Solaris.
The page in question specifically states 'dual licensed', with one of
them being the CDDL.
