Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I've several very long playlists on spotify, and they take complete minutes to load each time I open the playlist (or even click on the currently playing song inside of the very playlist! see #370)

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice if opening a playlist simply displays the most recent cache of it and upon a reload request it simply begins downloading it in the background, updating the page whenever it becomes available.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Perhaps it would be best if lazy-loading was fully implemented, for this would then perhaps ideally be done after that, but that's unnecessary extra work if we are to only get this done.
