The fair use images outside the article namespace issue is a long

Refusing to discuss something once it has been "settled" leads to stagnation. All policies should be open to discussion at all times.
This matter could be in a list of specific situations where GFDL is presumed. Thus a possible wording in this situation might be "A self-portrait of his own self uploaded by a Wikipedian is presumed to have been done in accordance with GFDL." There is no need to refer to fair use at all.
