An empirical assumption I disagree with. Most people are imho only
offended by swastikas if they are used for right-wing propaganda (i.e.
not for educational use).

My point was: The readership of German Wikipedia has far fewer people
who urgently demand such a feature than other language versions. That
should be kept in mind when looking at German Wikipedia's polls and it
should be accounted for when deciding if and where to deploy image filters.
