I'm just waiting for the day when someone with enough knowledge and black humor begins to translate the assets into something coh-like, but not quite coh.
Ex: Statesman into Statesfan. City of Heroes into City Of Zeros. Defenders into Pretenders. As long as the text is slightly different it's not infringement I assume.
Yay for parody based derivative works and Fair Use!
I mean when you think about it, all this has been happening for years with japanese to english translations of SNES games, animes, and the like.
You take some asset, apply a patch to it, and voila, it's something new.
I guess the real question is how long the charade will go on regarding negotiations. I hope and pray it succeeds, but as a betting person it seems more likely that that ship has sailed.
That's just my opinion and musings though, don't mind me.
