Honestly, what you are suggesting makes no sense at
all to me.
Of course Commons can keep its own Foundation's logo and it's other
copyrighted material. It goes without saying that this exception is
expected. To suggest otherwise seems really odd to me and most other people
I think.

The biggest problem I've seen is the creation of derivatives without
permission. This results in:
1)stuff with a rather messy copyright situation
The copyright status of these two images is one example:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Wikipe-tan-in-seaside.png
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Wikipe-tan-in-seasidewhiteball.PNG
2)more unfree media being created
The pure logos are something we have to accept. The derivatives is an
issue that we cannot continue to ignore forever
