One could search for a tag, and another and another narrowing down your search. I can't imagine how many times I was looking for something simple and being forced to make a specific choise in order to see a picture.
Indeed. Remember that the audience for this is not people interested in ontological structure - they already have the category tree. It's for the casual user to type in a few words they're thinking of. Think something like Getty Images. "Commons is sorta like Getty Images except it's all free and the search sucks."
I'll be starting developing this extension on my server this weekend. Just as a basic functioning proof-of-concept to see if there's any major problems I run into. As soon as it's something to look at I'll post and link and see if I can get it in SVN.
Please note that the toolserver link posted earlier is just a static HTML page. It is not a MediaWiki install.
