Photo/image hosting brainstorm post

mark is working for Dreamwidth fulltime, we're going to be working on many of the "big" projects that we want to do. One of them is a DW-native form of photo/image hosting that will let people upload images, maintain image galleries, quickly post images, etc, etc.
It'll be a while before we can have something released, but we're starting the design-and-spec process now! We have some ideas of our own about how it should work and what features it should contain, but we're turning to you guys right now at the very start, before we say anything about how we want things to work, to get your input and ideas without influencing them.
What features do you guys look for in photo/image hosting? What would you consider a "must have"? What would you consider to be nice but not necessary? What would be your "killer app" for image hosting -- the thing that would make you go "oh wow!" a lot and recommend it to all your friends?
Don't think about whether something's possible or not -- we want to hear your pie-in-the-sky ideas, your craziest thoughts, as well as your list of what features you'd absolutely require before you started to use it.

I actually am thinking about a way to make one's reading page include (if you want, of course) all kinds of activity, playing in with reading filters & subscriptions -- like, have a reading filter that's "picture uploads from all my subscriptions", one that's (if/when we offer it) "phone posts from all my subscriptoins", one that's "daily updates on any new bookmarks/memories my friends have added" (especially when we redo the memories function as bookmarks) -- that kind of thing.
Sort of like a play on Facebook's update stream, only without the suck. *G*
