Issue Summary
The architecture of drupal is since D7 no more - node only - and for D8 (or later) we will likely see the node entity bundle move from the core to the contrib space. Entities are the new nodes. ;) I think it would be better to make the cc selection a field - that can be attached to any entity or entity-bundle - instead of a nodes only approach.

#1
Yes. Then a license could be directly attached to media assets. There are 3 things keeping me from investing time in this. #1 is a general lack of time. #2 is a lack of clarity about direction the Media 2.x branch is taking in regard to metadata.
#377066: Meta-Data Plan and Structure
#1197450: file_entity should provided metadata about the file type property
#3 is the entity based CC licensing Acquia added to media_gallery. This is basically reverts back to CC Lite option with no support for jurisdictions, license versions, or even some licenses.

#1191188: Missing Creative Commons CC0 License Option
I would really like to see the D7 port finished and start the transition to a field in a new branch.
#2
okay, well argued. Sounds good to me.
#3
Maybe the media integration than is better done in a submodule, so media isn't a dependency.
