I think this is (unfortunately) a case where we can't avoid supporting both aggressive downloading/caching, as well as the behavior John describes. People use mail differently. A common use case in Europe is to download mails, hop on a train to a meeting, and work on the mails while on the train, without Internet connection. It would be incredibly annoying if that was when you discovered that the application didn't download message content, or attachments. Additionally, I like to have a complete local backup of my Gmail account, in case Google decides to randomly lock me out. There's also the problem that you can't filter on message content unless you load it.
