Yes, I do something similar on my site. With the
pagelist templates this is easy. You can create
thumbnail indexes of your albums if they are
defined using a wiki trail. You can also create
a "viewing" size view of all your photos in an album
(trail) on one page for those who want it. I find
this is actually a lot easier to view then a slideshow
which never seems to be the right speed, just put
all your photos on one LARGE page. :)
As for the trails, I use the DynamicWikiTrails
recipe, which should work much better (no longer
needs the trail patch) with the latest beta since
pmwiki now allows query strings in trails. I put
the dynamic trail markup in the Photos.GroupFooter
as you suggest. To see a sample, try:

it's a little slow on my poor pentium 200 :(
