I'm interested in what it would take to transwiki eligible (free content) images from en:wp to Commons. Is this just a matter of switching on the ability and having the person doing the transwiki being an admin on both wikis? How is the history preserved, in these dark days before SUL? Etc., etc.

Are you talking about *future* directions or what is done now? In the first case, only trusteness on Commons would be needed. On the second one: It is done at hand. Though we have the help of some nice tools ;) http://tools.wikimedia.de/~magnus/commonshelper.php
You could lie, but you can easily get caught.
For Commons, page history is not really important, but *image history*.
