Comment (by cr0ybot):

 For something like this to be added, I think taxonomies would need a
 `supports` argument like custom post type registrations have, as well as
 other APIs that come with it:

 - add_taxonomy_support()
 - remove_taxonomy_support()
 - get_all_taxonomy_supports()
 - taxonomy_supports()
 - get_taxonomies_by_support()

 It's possible that a theme support might have to be added as well. This is
 because there are undoubtedly countless sites out there with their own
 implementation of term featured/thumbnail images, some of which may be
 using the same meta key that core might implement.
