I perfectly agree with everything you write, and five images was also my personal suggestion for the threshold (I believe some exceptions can be make for somehow famous buildings). Right now we have most of the images sitting just in general categories "RM in the Netherlands" or at best "RM in city X". There is a lot of work ahead of us to categorize them also along usual lines like towns -> streets -> buildings.
