Not so awesome - I (Shinuyama goblins) killed off Skaven while Tomb Kings made a very strong peacetime development, after which we both took part in stomping down Ermor! Maybe if the game didn't turn into sheer boredom by the time of Skaven-stomping, I could agree with you, but I don't think mix and match is intristically better...
Of course, another thing needed for total conversion would be a possibility to make Warhammer-specific magic items and spells. Spells are sometimes possible, but items are sadly not (there are too many cool features currently not modable). If you meant this, I can only agree. But make all Warhammer nations excluding items (except maybe some may be modelled with summons already having them?) and with limited magic difference is certainly possible. Actually, I almost have them on paper - excluding graphics. A plus side of such an approach is that they should be balanced amongst themselves in this case. A minus side, of course, is ton of pics necessary at one time - what other problems do you see?
By the way, which Warhammer nations are still not taken by modders?
