Do any of these issues arise if one simply posts a lo-res image to
Photoforum's weekly web exhibit page with no intention to sell them
for monetary gain or otherwise exhibit them in their full splendor
with the possibility of sale? I haven't submitted a photo to
Photoforum in ages or ever one with people in it. But many others
have, often.

The area is not at all gray. Editorial is almost worse than commercial use.
The rule is: If you feature an identifyable person and with the photograph
or caption PUT WORDS IN THEIR MOUTH you become liable for 1) the content
that may differ with their points of view and 2) no remuneration without
permission for their endorsement or seemingly endorsement.
As an artistic photograph, a scenic on a card or book cover, no problem. A
photograph in an art exhibit, no problem. As soon as the person becomes a
speaker from within the picture, problem.
