The advantage of separately hosted Wikisource is that the artefacts are self
contained and can be used readily. Photographic media will be mainly useful,
when they are embedded in an article. May be non WMF projects  can use  the
same. Unfortunately, this  leads to fragmentation in the sense there is no
one  source for the sum of human knowledge.
