Ah! My comment crossed Luis' in the ether! Such a nice set of resources here.

Welcome to the frustrating world of academic publishing!

I understand colleagues have had some success with the method(s) you outline at the conclusion of your piece: Obtain copyright transfer paperwork from publishing institution, amend said documentation, and return under your own terms. Some folks just cross out sections of contracts to which they won't agree (this might be preferable to attaching addenda because these can be easily removed and "lost").

Have you considered publishing your work in an open access journal? Perhaps a publication on <a href="http://pkp.sfu.ca/ojs-journals">this list</a> from the Public Knowledge Project might make a good venue for your work. Alternatively, you could search <a href="http://www.doaj.org/">this database</a> for a candidate.
