A great many users, including some of our most prolific editors, have no clue about image copyright law or policy. The ability to block them from uploading images would be quite useful.
What would be even more useful would be for image uploading to be a privilege, not a right: you don't get the ability to upload images simply by registering an account.
A proper experiment on this would be a good thing. Measure the number of "good", "bad" and "borderline" images before and after the implementation of such a privilege system.
How would you work out who to give initial priveleges to? Is there enough history to determine which editors have uploaded more problem images than good ones?
