I don't see why we would need a review board. Just add a guideline asking
packagers to tag their packages if they think the contents could be
inappropriate out of courtesy toward their fellow community members.
If some packagers don't give a damn then that's fine and not a lot can be
done about that but why not give the community the tools to self
regulate?
Just because there is a general guideline does not mean there has to be
enforcement through an iron-fisted review board.
Without some sort of standards, the tags would likely become meaningless
to rely on in practice. (See also: the RPM Group tag.)
