I really like that idea.
It would absolutely demolish the risk of a community turning into a meme sub, or one of subs where people just post pictures of their Raspberry Pi in some retail case over and over again.
And as long as pictures are disallowed on the main post, people could still be free to post links to guides or other important content that contains pictures.
Hmm, links to pictures elsewhere seems like it would be less work for the computer running the instance.
Which would be pretty important if we want to keep monetization as unobtrusive as possible on Lemmy.
That said, I do think we need to figure out image hosting at some point.
