I'm pretty confused by this whole situation.

IANAL, but if you add restrictions such that you require modifications
to be under the BSD-2-Clause license, then it seems like you have
re-invented dual-licensing with the GPL license without any real
benefit.  If that is the case, I am not in favor of adding
yet-another-licensing-scheme to our repository.  But I could be swayed,
given the right argument.

What is the pragmatic benefit of your proposed license?

Mark.
