I would, however, strongly support a system that gives users a choice to censor if they wish. It should be possible to categorize commons in such a way that certain images can be blocked. For example, a user might choose to block "images of Muhammad", while allowing surgery related images (Others might swap there if they wish).
This is a perennial proposal. It's an idea I like, as it puts control in the hands of the viewer rather than third parties. All it requires is someone to code something that passes muster as being unlikely to melt the servers.
