Good point. (Although the question "preferred by whom?" does come to mind.)

Indeed, I may have been overreaching. Thanks for drawing the line!
The point I was trying to make was mainly about the "If it exists, I
want to see it" part, though: the license should not mandate that a
source form must exist, but it **could** acknowledge its existence.
(Granted, it's a rather weak requirement and probably wouldn't be of
much use before a court in case of a violation, but it could encourage
people towards better practices. As Mike said earlier, a license is
more than just a legal piece of paper.)

Oh, then I shouldn't have tried to be clever and just stick with more
traditional examples :-)
(Unless I'm mistaken, fashion bears a whole lot of copyrightable
aspects in Europe.)
Cheers,
Valentin.
