Yes, but that is example of were the commercial copyright would have been relevant. But maybe this is a Swedish thing (I cannot find the corresponding term and examples):

Non-Economic Rights

By copyright law, the artist or originator has the right to be associated by name with the artistic work. Furthermore, the artist possesses "the right to respect for the work," which stipulates that the work cannot be changed or distributed to the public in a manner that is "damaging to the originator's literary or artistic reputation or distinctive character."
I have always thought that these non-economic rights was forever. At least the part of the name being associated with the work.
