Standarising with a template? Ok.
Using that image? No.
Using rel="cc:morePermissions" ? Maybe, but you'd need an extension just 
to add that, plus if it's only listing an email it's useless. We don't 
have personal statements to add with it. There would be a point in 
tagging GFDL as cc:morePermissions, but IMHO may seem that GFDL is "less 
important" that the CC one.


Proposals:
a) Create template: "If this set of permissions doesn't fit your needs, 
[[contact me]]..." which also means that the uploader is willing to 
atend such requests.
b) Start discussion about using CC metadata. It also involves technical 
difficulties in doing so without killing the servers or being killed by 
domas ;-)
