My intention is to port the UIImageGridType or create something similar to it 
in libmythui, then use that when mythgallery is switched over. The changes I 
made today are just short term, quick fixes for the short comings of the 
existing method.

If it weren't for the mythui port, then I'd probably have changed a lot more 
in mythgallery, it's UI could use a lot of work, not least because it looks 
and behaves differently to most other screens. If possible and assuming I can 
get agreement, then I'd like to style it closer to the video gallery (Menu 
not on screen all the time, thumbnails  not shown on folders and folder/image 
names shown beneath the icons, not in a separate textarea.
