...that would be really, really cool.  I would probably use it.
I wouldn't use it for my sex filter, because I want to control
who reads that, not that it gets much use these days.

I'd like to make it related to tags somehow though.

There are a lot of things I'd not mind letting readers opt out of
that I don't necessarily want to filter to only the eyes of
people I trust.  For instance, fandom meta and fics are actually
NOT something I want only the people I trust to be able to read.
I want comments on those from people I don't know as well as
those I do (though I screen them, because I do get trolled).

If someone who knows me from someplace other than fandom would
like to be able to skip all posts tagged "SPN meta" I am fine
with that.  I know there were people who knew me from other
places during my last few years in the HP fandom who would have
cheerfully opted out of posts about HP, why I don't like HP any
more, and why I think HP fandom generally sucks a lot.  They were
not posts I was going to lock or filter, because there were
people I definitely wasn't friends with that I still wanted to be
able to read them, but they were posts some of my friends would
have preferred not reading.
