I could also tell my L to tell the W's L to go ahead and put things on hold (I'm really not sure how this can be done) and not say anything at all to the W as far as her other wishes regarding a mediator. I guess the L can tell me how any of this would work - but I still want our side to finish up and be prepared for another sneak attack.


You are reading too much into what she is doing/thinking. What does your L advise you to do? If she is really canceling the divorce, she needs to initiate it as she is the Petitioner.
Your L should recommend to proceed to defend you against the D unless she files for dismissal. You shouldn't be negotiating with your WW on this, your L should be talking to her L.
