We have no plans for that AFAIK.

- Why do we load both 640px and 1920px version of images?
We preload the fullscreen version of the image. We didn't make that configurable, but we should.
Ohhhh. I hadn't thought of preloading as causing that much trouble, but at least it's bandwidth that is asynchronous and (hopefully) invisible to the user.
On mobile it should probably never preload anything, though.
