The broad range of "image gallery" type modules show that "image gallery"
means different things to different people. The fact that *you* have found
image.module to work for your need best does mean that it is the golden
one? What if you have slightly different needs?
Golden or not golden is a binary thing. If something is golden, it does
not mean it fulfills my needs. Quality is just one factor, and we should
certainly not treat it as binary.
