Sounds like someone needs to work on a library to make that easier to do. Would 
there be any commercial value in it?

Does anyone have a good working example of how to do that? It seems

I don't but this shouldn't be that difficult. Assuming there are existing 
functions for loading an image from a file:
1 - Check if file to image on SD card exists
2 - If so, load it, done.
3 - If not, download from your server, cache to SD card where you checked 
previously so it'll be there next time
4 - Profit

Of course you will want to let the user know that you're downloading stuff 
somehow, especially if they're large images that will take some time.
