It would then be up to the browsers to start supporting filtering via the tag, and they'd start looking pretty bad since any move like this from Google would generate worldwide media attention.

Hmmm, and I wonder if a Jerry Falwell rant about the dangers of porn would be blocked out by such a filter as well. If someone is searching for the 700 club view on porn, and porn is a keyword, and the meta isn't restricted... Ahhh, one can only dream, right?
