Has anyone actually tried setting this up? A first shot might be to put
together a central "index" portal, which lets you see all the available
cams. People who want to set up cams would set them up on their own server
resources, then register them with the central index along with a location
in map grid coords (and a direction faced?) , so that anyone could access a
single website, choose cams by location, and then view them (having been
redirected to the owner's server). Ideally, you'd want to provide a zoomable
map with locations of cameras, which could be chosen clickwise.

OK, I follow your argument and I want to agree. Looks to me
like the currently-available webcams are a good investment in both
good and bad neighborhoods, so privacy schmivacy, we should be
putting this in place. Everywhere. I haven't yet. I want to plug into
a network of some sort, so that my cam could be used by anyone
who wants to track the location of anyone who should pass by. spike
