They could put up a "we are porn" tag today, and as soon as they are listed change it to "safe for kids". I don't think anyone wants to have to re-write bots to try to figure out what is in a seperate file.
3 - you have to re-register each domain (or modify the files) for each use. Registration is pointless if you register only one domain and never mention the rest.
4 - If you use what already works (not really) then you are endorsing it and making a simpler solution less likely.
5 - What Conner Young failed to do was look at the millions and millions of pages, galleries, free sites, paysites, and blogs out there with no tags and the thousands upon thousands of webmasters who have no intention of endorsing a system that creates hassle and extra administrion.

Some american webmasters still don't have valid 2257 information, or have the 2257 pointing to a mailboxes etc or a po box in an office building. That is with a major threat of jail and huge fines. Do you really think we can do better on a volunteer system that is just way more complicated than it needs to be?

This I would like to propose is a good thing. I really think that agreeing and doing the little, easy, simple things like metags now is something to be expected from a "good wm". Doing the code work just goes with the job. Lazy webmasters are on their own, just like spammers, and other unwanted stuff.
Repeat:
Step One: give the government a smaller target to go after. By setting our standard of self compliance.

So, maybe a poll on which tag is most popular is a good thing to explore as well. Mature, Adult, Restricted,
