That was my thought as well, although I have never seen Gallery2. What about rgallery[1]? It's a rails application -- I haven't looked into it in any detail, but if it supports the rails theme plugin[2] we'd be 1/2 way there to having a gallery that supports existing Typo themes.
Typo themes and themes for the rail theme plugin are close enough that getting a theme to work for both apps would be easy. Does rgallery support themes out of the box?
