I agree with what is written on that page, especially this part:
Screenshots should only show features that are actually available to the
public, not models that are private and can't be distributed due to a
non-GPL-compatible, restrictive license etc. 

But I think that it would be much easier to impose a particular creative
common license from these:
http://creativecommons.org/about/licenses/meet-the-licenses (I think
that  by-nd should be reasonable good)

or even using one of these:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Upload  (You must be logged in
