Resolution of Warcraft and Starcraft universes?

Not sure which topic to put this in, or if this has been done before. I'm new to the site, and to WoW.
I've always wondered about how to resolve the two worlds that Blizzard has created.
I think a World of Starcraft could be a typical evolution of the game development, but for Blizzard, financially, it just doesn't make sense to cannibalize the customer base from WoW, which I could imagine it inevitably would.
So, what if the two worlds somehow meet? How would you meld the two together, if it is at all possible?
Pros or cons?

It's been "confirmed" (by a Blizz employee at one of the Blizz gatherings) that they're just beginning to develop (probably still in the creativity on paper phase) a next-gen MMO, as was hinted on their job offerings page. It's probably a planned project for several years down the road, but I'm guessing its their preparation for their post-WoW era, to keep themselves up in the MMO industry with current up-to-date games.
Maybe sooner then you think. Blizzard is bound to announce something at BlizzCon and I don't buy the theory's that it'll just be a new Diablo 3 class or WotLK's release date. Those might find their way in but I doubt they'll be the main attraction.

Lol.
Yeah, I don't see bliz doing the whole convert series to MMORPG idea again, because in a way it kinda kills the series.
Why hasn't / won't there be a Warcraft 4? Because World of Warcraft still exsists.
Also the fans of those series (Diablo or Starcraft) would probably torch Bliz HQ if they did that, I've been watching the Diablo 3 forums some and those people are very very against making Diablo 3 more "Wow-like".
Maybe Blizzard will make a completely new game (Gasp) instead of just glueing something on to the end of one of their other series.

I don't know if they'd really "intertwine" the two, but the universe is vast. It's connected by the Twisting Nether, and Sargeras can pop up pretty much anywhere. Burning Legion attacking the zerg? It's more likely than you think

Makes sense... I mean in Ultima 1, you had to build/buy a spaceship to win the game at the end (yes, wacky)
