I'm sure it's not the first time this

French chapter has dragged us into the world of

it's
probably worth [re]considering. Perhaps it is
enough initially to tag
images
lacking releases accordingly, with a view to
having them released or
replaced? I note that this would also dispense with many concerns about
minors by requiring a minor release by parents or guardians[5].
At the moment pictures with people in are tagged with a warning that a
reuser may have to consider model release and personality rights, and
Commons guarantees nothing. It's not clear from your message why this
is inadequate.
It quite probably is, and provided the tags are used it answers some of the
issues in the other (sexual content) thread too.
Thanks,
