So, the existing galleries are in "extras/source/gallery". Perhaps Kami
can give an overview of "how to add a new gallery" to extras for the
"integrated into LibreOffice" case ?

Galleries can be deployed as extensions as well as integrated right into
the installed product, there should be some preexisting examples
available, googling on "Gallery Extensions".

FWIW I have an extension at
http://svn.fedorahosted.org/svn/openoffice.org-diafilter/ which is a
gallery extension (as well as a import filter for the dia format) 

http://svn.fedorahosted.org/svn/openoffice.org-diafilter/gallery/gallerygen.odg contains a macro to 
make a gallery from a dir IIRC
