Yeah, but this is a metadata search, correct? Seems to me Our Protectors(TM) 
are probably able to search a vast database of images themselves. In other 
words, go look for details they hadn't previously thought of as being 
important (and hence were not available in metadata). Given high-density 
CCDs and real cheap storage, these details may be very minute, or perhaps 
small+far away.

You probably already know of this, but something like Photodisc?
Getty Images - stock photos and images:
http://www.photodisc.com/
http://www.fotosearch.com/photodisc/
Has a search feature, eg "content young woman sitting looking at camera"
(direct quote used to find the pic MicroSoft used for their
"switch" campaign).
