The problem is that GFDL really doesn't allow that

It's more strongly viral than CC-by-SA.
FUD!
From the GFDL v1.2:
7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the copyright
resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights
of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit.
When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not
apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves
derivative works of the Document.
Of course you can argue that an image created specifically to
illustrate an article, or that an article created specifically to
elaborate an image is a derivative rather than an aggregation, there
is no difference between the Creating Confusion - * licenses and the
GFDL in this respect.
