If we accept fair use images, I see no reason not to accept CC-licensed ones as well. We already have a lot of images used under various CC licenses. See http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Whatlinkshere&target=... for example. Correct tagging of images used under these licenses is very important so that reusers who want only GFDL content can easily sort them out from the rest. Adding a message such as {{cc-by-sa}} is the easiest way of doing this. See [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags]] for more details.
