Comment 2 for bug 688347

The main goal is to respect the privacy permissions as they are set on
Flickr.

There are a number of options that would achieve this:

1) Only import and/or display public photos. (And explain this policy to the
owner on import).
2) Import everything, but the only photos displayed on published pages or
exported through the API are the public ones. (Potentially confusing for the
user).
3) Give the user a single setting about whether he wants to import public,
private and/or family photos. (With the proviso that these photos could go
out through the API if they publish a page with that photo?).
3) Import everything, but require that viewers and/or API callers provide
their Flickr credentials. Use those credentials to check if they have
permission to view the photo. (Much more difficult to engineer.)

We might want to start with (1) but aim for (3).
