This is going wildly of topic. But...
The decency?
I don't think i would agree with your characterization that people who
don't like to give a carte blanche to everyone to publish (sometimes not
very elegant) photos of them should treat themselves as second rank
participants.
Especially in the context of a discussion around a friendly space policy, i
am of the opinion that this would be a dangerous direction.

In which case, those people should have the decency

themselves anywhere where a photo shoot or video recording is very likely
to take place. Or politely take space at the back of the room and wear
a face mask. Personally, I don’t see why anyone should be embarrassed at
being part of a benevolent movement such as Wikipedia - have they
something disastrous to hide? In which case, perhaps they better not
go to Wikimania at all, and if they are scholarship recipients, give
their place over to someone else.

I was disappointed at the last Wikimania(london 2014) I went to with the
number of people wearing dont take my photo stickers taking up positions at
the front of the room or near speakers that made it hard to get images of
the room and record the event.

I’ve been to a great many international
conferences in my career -
but not so many since I retired. I can’t recall people wearing
‘Don’t touch me’, ‘Don’t photo me’, ‘Don’t come near me’, ‘Don’t talk
to me’ badges. Do they do it nowadays already?
We’ll porbably never know the details of the incident that sparked
all this off but do I think it is getting out of proportion.

Thanks, James. I think that "clarifying the distinction between friendly
spaces situations and Trust & Safety issues" is a good idea.
A specific suggestion that was made earlier in this thread which sounded
like a good idea to me was to have an indicator, somewhat like we currently
do for "Photos OK" or "Photos not OK", for "friendly touch
OK" or "friendly
touch not OK".
I would also like to see the upcoming review of the relevant policies
include discussions of who should be responsible for them (I'm confused
about why WMF is in charge of these issues at events instead of the local
organizers) and the level of transparency regarding reports and
investigations.
Thanks for your attention to these issues.
