I think we've already considered this and it's getting thumbs up from a
wide range of people.  I see problems but there are workarounds.
I think the interface will suck compared to the browser-based filtering I
already use but apparently I'm the only person on this list with extensive
experience of day-to-day content filtering, and it's possible that my way
of using the web is vastly different from the way most people do.
