I've been working on a similar app for Commons for a while now. It will do things like display the latest featured pictures, or the latest images in a category, or a user's most recent uploads (like Flickr's photostream thing), or any of a range of other things (the limits are what can be easily retrieved via the API).
Currently I'm hampered by the slowness of the toolserver account requesting process, so if you want to see this app in action then go bug DaB :)
