Fee shifting distorts the default legal environment in the United
States.  European courts often award costs to the winner even with no
license clause to that effect.  I am not sure about the rest of the
world.  There are good arguments to be made on each side, but I think
a free software license is not an appropriate place to make them, or
an appropriate vehicle to enforce the licensor's views on the issue.
