Motivation
For some users, entering the flickr id for an asset (photo or photoset) is not intuitive. When adding an image, the user should be able to see what they are adding before submitting the form.
In this patch
This patch comprises an unobtrusive, ahah-paginated javascript flickr image browser for flickrfield, with support for photos and photosets, along with some trivial standards compliant updates to existing flickrfield code.
Flickr Browser is...
... disabled by default and adds a widget setting checkbox to the content type edit form.
... based on unobtrusive javascript to populate the existing flickr id field when an image is clicked.
... compatible with existing flickrfield cck fields.
Flickr Browser is not...
... intended to change the behavior of flickrfield in any way.

The functionality is very nice, I like the browser. Here are my observations after trying this.
Creating a photo: (cool)

After hitting submit: (not cool)

The errors in the second screenshot are due to a javascript error concerning the patch you recommend applying to teaser.js. After reverting that patch, the error goes away but I am still at the /node/add/photo page after submission.
