The Village Pump discussion that you quote is now archived here:
*http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump/Proposals/Archive/2012/07#Gallery_portals

Foroa only made that one comment there. He started the other discussion later.
At that later discussion there seemed to be some agreement that something was
needed in order to have some kind of overview of the 106,000 gallery pages. See
that number here: 
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Database_reports/Page_count_by_namespace
 

Foroa did not state an opinion on the other ideas. Please reread the later
discussion at Commons:Categories_for_discussion to understand the problem. It
is the main discussion: 
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Categories_for_discussion/2012/07/Category:Gallery_pages#Category:Gallery_pages

It is not about the awareness of the main namespace. We are aware of it. It is
about being able to browse the titles of the many gallery pages in that main
namespace in some comprehensible way. One possibility might be to categorize
all gallery pages in a flat category. But that is not so easy to browse. Even
with Template:LargeCategoryTOC. And it is not in a category tree format that
way. 

So it would be nice if some kind of way could be created in MediaWiki to show
gallery page titles in some kind of browseable category tree format. I am open
to ideas. But I am not a developer, and so I am asking developers for any help
they might give.
