Great post! I'm not sure, but isn't one of Simon's points (and the point of many a blogger/message boarder out there in recent days) the potential that seems to be building for mass orphaning, for lack of a better term? There is so much hub-bub going on in the different art forums, but the gist seems to be that though everything you wrote is correct as of TODAY, that there is an active attempt through legal means to change the way orphan works are handled, and indeed what constitutes orphan works to begin with.
