 Exactly; and it only works for MediaWiki websites.
I'm sure it wouldn't be hard for other platforms to hack/modify it
and get it working with their platforms, just no one has probably
tried so we havn't seen any such results.

 Not yet, but it is definitely a feature we're considering. There was a
 discussion about a pinging system during the Multimedia meeting in Paris
 last October, but we have more critical issues to address first.

Any contemporary MediaWiki installation can use Commons as an external
repository. I am using Commons as an external repository whenever I
install MediaWiki. (Or I am missing some point?)

There is no way for us to see if any external sources (such as for
example, your install) is using a file.
