You may or may not already know this, but a similar feature is already 
scheduled to be added at some point.  The idea would be to be able to run it 
as a cron job, to periodically update the cache, so when you actually opened 
PAN in GUI mode, most of the headers (technically, overviews) and for the 
groups where you had set it so, posts themselves, would be already d/led.

They are working on it, but it's not a feature that is there, yet.  I don't 
for sure r/c what the target milepost is for it, but it is indeed scheduled.
