If a person does a song that I like at a jam I may pick it up, but if they are at the jam the next time I attend I will suggest they do that song, not do it myself. But I wouldn't be bummed out if someone else did it, or a different version of it. It is possible that we sometimes over think these things.

Not a new problem.
Steve Roud, referring to traditional folk singers in English Folk Songs, says, "It was extremely common in close communities to find that particular songs belonged to particular singers, and even though many of the others in the company knew and could sing those songs, they would not normally do so in the presence of those 'owners'. ... Some songs were held 'in common', but ownership of other songs was clearly a widespread and largely unremarked convention, which in ordinary circumstances was respected. It was not always uncontested, however, and there could be some resentment if it was abused, or if others claimed a song to which they had no 'right'."

Every now and then a visitor or new member comes in - they are always very welcome - and will do a song that ‘belongs’ to a regular. Absolutely nobody would ever say anything negative to them about it, or try to get them not to do it anything. So it’s a very soft rule/convention. But it is interesting that it has survived. I see it in operation in a lot of session groups over here.
