A cloud wallet in and of itself is not a bad idea; it just needs to be secured appropriately. Multi-sig support is probably key here. You could have the best of both convenience and security with a 2-of-3 setup, where you keep one key in cold storage, one in a native app on your devices, and one with the cloud provider.

What we need is to decouple the online service from the app on your device. Maybe someone could develop a secure app with a nice API or protocol that users can securely connect to 3rd party services without fearing that the key in their device could be stolen.
