I'm not sure I understand, can you provide more details? Your suggestion appears very similar to the existing CC+ protocol. CC+ isn't a license, but a means for communicating to the public that in addition to the rights granted by the CC license, you (the licensor) are willing to grant still more (but not less) permissions than the license already gives. If implemented properly, the CC human readable deed indicates that additional permissions are available, facilitating that arrangement.

See http://wiki.creativecommons.org/CCPlus for an explanation, as well as use cases (http://wiki.creativecommons.org/CCPlus#Use_Cases) and examples of organizations using CC+ to signal those additional permissions.

Or are you suggesting something different?

Hi @ll

I use to distribute my works under CC-By-SA 3.0u avoiding to add the NC Tag for the case that any@ne liked and were able to publish them in other formats.... and exploit them commercially.
Indeed, in my main work I added a [Written Note] stating this, asking to whoever that want to make commercial uses, to contact first with me.

This will share the economic benefits, if any, -with The Author(s)- while maintaining the current (Author's) conditions... and the subsequent Freedoms for Readers, Modifiers, etc.

The '+' Sign could be added to easily indicate that any condition should be modified (waived/added) through a PRIOR contact -and (written) agreement- with The Author(s)...

That is CC By-SA+, or CC By-ND+... and so on...
