Maybe worth considering loading them in the background (in a low priority
thread). Perhaps just one each side of the current desktop..
Maybe configurable, to conserve memory usage. Although pictures which have
been loaded but not used are only consuming swap, not real memory, and I
don't suppose that's so important for most people...
