Personally, I wish that Commons permitted images with licenses that restricted the images to noncommercial use only. There are some media files that I would have uploaded to Commons if this was the case.
I have seen at least previous discussion about this but I can't remember what happened to it. My guess is that the proposal died for lack of consensus or lack of energy. I remember that one proposed solution was to set up another website for media files that would allow media with NC restrictions.
