[Feature Request] Grid type: Gallery Thumbnails #150

It would be awesome to be able to select type of Grid in a MIGx Config. Thumbnail like grids (as shown in the image below) seems adequate for dealing with images and other types of data as it saves some vertical space.

Being a regular user of MIGx i think it will add a lot of flexibility when building CMPs. I'm planning on making a thumbnail art direction extra and MIGx, imageplus+ and pThumb seems good companions for it.

The following is not part of the Feature Request. Just explaining a bit how it can mix well when building custom UI update forms.

Triggering the update window for an item in the grid for example could bring something like this to deal with multiple thumbnail, user driven, art direction for that image:

Storing the values in a nested migx and calling the thumbs in the front end in this form inside a LoopCollection or getImageList snippet call for that custom Object or Resource: 

[[+galleryitem:thumb=`small`]] , [[+galleryitem:thumb=`medium`]]  or even shorter:  [[+galleryitem:th=`large`]]

+1, would definitely be a great feature!
