Another +1, especially if it ever gets an asciibetical 
directory-based view.  I'd like to navigate images in the same 
way they're organized in the filesystem.  One reason for this is 
so I can use gallery-app to read manga, which isn't currently 
feasible.  It can't properly sort or navigate trees of images in 
the form of "title/chapterNNN/pageNNN.jpg".
