There really needs to be a "Properties" menu in the root Albums page that allows configuration of all albums in the Gallery. It would also be nice to have a resize, rebuild thumbs, etc.

Is there any reason this has never been included? I keep hoping to see this feature when a new version is released.

Patience, grasshopper. It's not included because no one has written it yet. It's a big job, and none of us are getting paid for this.

In terms of the global "properties" if I can suggest a revert to defaults (Gallery configuration defaults that is) and some controls locking down some album properites so they cannot be changed from the gallery defaults..

Sorry. By "Done" I meant "I've written the code for this, but it's only 85% ready, so it's not been committed yet." Look for it soon in 1.4.2 CVS.
