GOG will let you bequeath your game library to someone else as long as you can prove you're actually dead (www.pcgamer.com)

The whole thing is vaguely and noncomittally worded, it promises basically nothing.

Take this bit for example:

taking into account the EULAs of specific games within it

In other words: talk to the individual publishers of each game and get their permission :P At which point GOG's involvement is almost irrelevant, if you have the publisher's consent then they might as well give you a copy.
