Others have proposed a third party rating specific revs of specific articles, sort of like how Veropedia does it. Which is basically a matter of someone bothering who thinks they can do it scalably. But it's unlikely to fly as something to be done on a WMF site itself.
You don't rate revs you just prepare a list of whatever content you want to block plug it into dansguardian and make the list available to third parties.
Next question: what's stopping people from doing this themselves, rather than demanding Wikipedia do it for them? If there's demand for such a service?

The main difference is that the filtering works from their end and they have to install the software. Keeping track of all of the images on commons is a bit of a pain but the categories should clue you into most of them and once you've got it up and running finding people to keep it going should be possible. The other advantage of course is that you can have multiple lists for people with different standards.
