That is a political issue (ie. opinion). I happen to share it, but it completely misses the point I was making: Sharing copyright with employees, as you were suggesting, presents many of the same management problems (i.e. costs) as software patents, and those similarities (IMO) make it a really lousy idea. If you want to be nice to your employees, offer them shares in the company.
