Flickr backup

I found a simple Java application to backup my flickr photos to local harddisk - while many of them exist on my computer already and were just added to flickr for sharing, there are lots of camera phone pictures I don't have around anywhere else. Thus such a thing makes sense.

However, the tool is a bit simple, does not understand incremental backups etc, it seems. Anyone in the (lazy)web2.0 circles done something like this with Python or something that also syncs the tags and other metadata?
