Hi Erik,
that OA-focused "Wikipedian in Residence" idea sounds interesting well beyond the image aspects - would definitely like to be kept in the loop on that one.

One funding organization recently contacted me about the possibility about funding an open access "Wikipedian in Residence" at an OA organization, in order to pursue projects like this (which is pretty straightforward for anyone with lightweight technical knowledge and dedicated focus). I'll ping them about that idea to see if it's likely to happen.
