So you're not just wanting an app that gives an improved UI for accessing those internet picture albums, but automatic local caching as well...

What algorithms do you want for picture selection selection and cache management? Most recent? A smarter weighting algorithm that uses metadata such as
  • tagged as favorite
  • recent photos
  • matching tag X, as currently set in preferences
  • pictures from just about a year ago (very handy at parties and birthdays)
  • Taken near current GPS location
  • recently emailed pictures (implies email integration)
  • pictures tagged with contact for upcoming meetings
  • random set, so that any app doing screensaver picture rotation has a good set of pictures to surprise you with each day
