Yipieh, wait for this also quite a long time - would be cool to have it!
But what If a user has thousands of pics on his device (very common 
usecase after 2 or 3 travels with a digi cam :)....
- chunk them up in pages? Could be still loading a lot of time....
- search for them? but my images mostly have some cryptic numbers like 
IMG_021588...
- display the latest uploaded images on the first page? would be somehow 
more inteligent...

Ideas?
