[Tagging] Photo links in OSM

Is it possible to view geotagged Flickr photos or geotagged photos from
some other reputable image hosting service in JOSM? Flickr, Picasa,
what-not would be good. .. And even better if it was possible to choose to
view only photos of certain license (thinking of different CC licenses).
I thought I've seen such plugin(s) for JOSM before but don't seem to find
anything other than MapPin'on
OSM<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/MapPIN'on_OSM> now
and the last time I checked it didn't work -- not a reputable/stable enough
service to upload my thousands of ground surveyed geotagged photos (for
mapping and viewing purposes) in any case.
