This is true, but if you dual license like this, your code will also carry another more permissive license, like Apache, BSD, or MIT, without an explicit re-licensing at a later date. It (that code only) can then be used under the more permissive license straight from the GPL-marked project. To convert from a GPL-licensed project, the user would only have to replace the GPL-licensed components.
