Enhance Image Grid options similar to blogfeed settingfs

There are 2 features I'd love to see added to the Grid:

HORIZONTAL MODE

Right now, the grid assumes a vertical/down orientation: the developer specifies columns, and the grid fills across then down, as new images are added. I'd like to be able to have a horizontal/right orientation: the developer specifies the number of *rows*, and as new images are added, the grid places them down, then to the right of previous images. So a visitor would scroll horizontally to view all images, rather than scrolling down the page. 

This feature is specially important when we want to have a gallery with an arbitrary number of images, but we also want the gallery to take up only a set amount of vertical space on the page. 

SHOW PAGINATION

Set a number of images per 'page', and show a pagination widget to allow visitors to browse through. This is another strategy to limit the amount of layout space a gallery might take, when giving the client the ability to add an arbitrary number of images.

Thank you for your answer. This is a good idea. Let's vote!

Could you say specifically what you would like us to do with the grid of images? What specific features are you missing?

Very important: The options:

The pagination: Number of images (like 10) and displayed images in a row (like 4) with the pagination (like < 1 2 3 >
