It seems odd too if we want to read Desdemona as having a moment of sympathetic identification with (or pity) with an African woman. Putting her on stage is weird enough, but making her a WW in some ways undermines the play's exploration of interracial feeling.

Absolutely. It seems to underwrite the racial fear that so many have taken away from the play.
