Karyudo: some of the equipment on that site is 700 line broadcast cameras. Thats a lot better than SD, no?
Yes, I was referring to the Sniper/SniperPro, at $3000. It's hardly prohibitive. Nearly anybody could raise that kind of cash if they were enthusiastic enough.
I'm sure it would be difficult and relatively expensive, but why all the negativity? I think we are being pretty realistic here. It just needs someone (or a group of someones) to organise it.

Only the legal part is really scary, and to be honest I don't think that Lucasfilm will go after an anamorphic SD scan if they don't bother with all the transfers already done.
