I think that having the image blurring system, combined with an option to unblur, 
would get us very far towards the stated board directive, and I don't think
many in the community would object, and we could reach consensus fairly quickly.

While we're on the business of perhaps putting these options in a right-click menu,
we could also make other images tools (more explicitly) available
like adding the option to add image-maps, and making explicit the options
to view license details and full size versions of the image.

If there are but few additions, we can go straight to bugzilla. If people feel that
adjustment is needed, we can take this to meta first, before moving to bugzilla.

sincerely,
	Kim Bruning
