Discrimination acceptable within Florida? Charming! (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tasteful

'charming' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'discrimination acceptable within florida?' is the wordplay.
'discrimination' becomes 'taste' (taste is a kind of discrimination**).
'acceptable' becomes 'u' ((Film classification)).
'within' is an insertion indicator.
'florida?' becomes 'fl'.
'u' placed within 'fl' is 'ful'.
'taste'+'ful'='TASTEFUL'

(Other definitions for tasteful that I've seen before include "with discrimination" , "Showing good aesthetic judgement" , "Let Faust have ability to enjoy good things" , "Discriminating" , "Aesthetically pleasing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
