there is no broadly agreed model of what that consent form might look

Actually there is:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Consent
That looks better than I had remembered -- thanks, and sorry for not
mentioning it.
So images like this one would have to be deleted:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Michelle_and_Barack_Obama_paint_at_a_Habi…
That image should be tagged with {{consent|published}}, which states the
following:
" This media was copied from the source indicated, which adheres to
professional editorial standards, allowing the status of consent to be
reasonably inferred."
Thus there is no reason it should be deleted. There are several such
options available with the consent template.
This certainly seems like an improvement to me (in terms of due diligence
and providing the reader with useful information) -- but how does it
address the image's compatibility with the board resolution? It remains
true that all 5 people were in a private setting, and did not (to our
knowledge) express their consent to be published on Wikimedia Commons. (Or
perhaps mere "consent to be published" is what the board meant - ?)
