Hmmm... would lead to "not logged in" errors in case of users without SUL or with restrictive cookie settings (no third party cookies). Also it would lead to errors due to missing rights (account too young).

Maybe it would be better to integrate an option in Mediawiki which replaces all links to file pages with links to these file pages on commons (possibly with a suboption to append uselang=). Such a script is already available as user JavasScript - but that is not a clean solution.
