Although it isn't "official" or at all definitive, I believe the
"personal image filter mockup" would be interesting to look at if you
haven't already: <http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Personal_image_filter>
I took a look, at first glance I dislike such an idea. I think that simply
a good set of categories freely classifying as many kinds of "offensive
contents" as needed from endless list of personal idiosyncrasies coupled
with some simple user-side js tool, freely built by user itself to "filter"
images, should be sufficient. Users should be simply encouraged to add such
categories to offending images, and to build filtering tools, by themselves
or with some help from willing friends; problem solved, IMHO.
And - what about wikipedia, or sister projects, using "offensive images"? Is
such a filtering procedure to be extended to articles using offensive images
too into any wiki?
