I have been working on an addition to Gallery I like to call “Micro Thumb Navigation”. I am hoping to have it included in a 1.5.x release as a new feature. It includes a few new options, styles of navigation and a few other fun things. You can find all of the versions as it progresses here or the most recent zip/diff. I also have a thread in the Gallery forums here.
