Visual Watermark for Restricted Photos

As an editor, I want to visually identify photos marked with usage restrictions at a glance, so that I can quickly distinguish restricted from unrestricted assets without relying on metadata fields.

Currently, we can display the restriction status via the "restricted/unrestricted" status in the Photo Center search, but our four metafield slots are already in use for other purposes. We propose implementing a watermark solution (red stop sign icon) directly on restricted images, similar to our current DAM implementation (see screenshot).

The possibilty to filter a search for restricted or unrestricted images would be great, too.
