Tasteful fanservice or needed for the scene/plot moments rather than fanservice just because they can. (people were surprised they didn't have a panty shot with Yuki jumping around in Haruhi, and Fumoffu got rid of the panty shots of Chidori that GONZO liked to throw in.) At an onsen...people are naked...clever use of materials brings us tasteful fanservice in an appropriate setting. Mikuru gets caught dressing and undressing a few times in the light novels...so scene/plot related moments.

Tessa showering and dressing in the OVA along with her sleepwalking....well you can get away with a little more in an OVA...and yet is was still tasteful.

So far, KyoAni gives fanservice, but most of it is either tasteful, or just fits the situation-mood of the scene (Kyou in the locked storage shed scene in Clannad).

I doubt there will be such moments in K-On!, but you never know. The artwork is more realistic than Lucky Star was, but not as much as say Clannad. It would depend on the storylines and what one considers fanservice.
