Chapters would be ideal bodies to build up servers for such material,
that may not be free enough for Commons copyright paranoia under US
law but are definitely clear under local law.

I suspect there may still be problems transparently integrating such
material into Wikimedia. Not that anyone is likely to sue in practice,
but such a workaround really just wouldn't suit the way Wikimedia does
things - bending over backwards to be absolutely sure images really
are free.
