What if you ask someone to take a photo of you at a tourist attraction? We have to account for things like that. You can't say, "Can you please take a photo of me and my wife? Here's my camera. Oh, and while your're at it, could you release all rights to that?"

And then there's the related case of photographs taken "under direction" (my camera, my idea, but you held it and pushed the button). This has a sort of "work for non-hire" feel to it, and I'm sure it's been discussed at length, too.
I don't think it has been discussed, and such images have been deleted in the past - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Minneapolis_meetup_2005.jpg
I guess such images are fair use if you never asked the person using your camera to license the image.
