That's one is rather extreme. But actually you're arguing not use a CMS
as each site will have different needs. :-)

What I want is a gallery that fulfils many basic needs but is easily
extendable. All galleries I have seen so far (I haven't used them all)
are inflexible and have horrible code that can only be changed with
crude hacks. The docs are not good and often they don't work as
advertised. Their crap, sorry. So this is why I long for the ONE really
great gallery.
