Hmm, seems you are right ... I will note it down as a 'bug'. However, this issue will be solved with entirely new "sort" methods coming soon for both image- and folder modules. Instead of tag "shuffle", there will be a sort setting:
gallery: sort:[da][dd][na][nd][random]
date ascending, date descending, name ascending, name descending, random (shuffle) ... Did I miss any sorting method that we need?

If this could be possible, then it would be great if the shuffled order of the carousel menu would be the same as the folder ordering.
I am a bit skeptical to this. We could add a "shuffle" setting for the menu, but it doesn't seem like a good idea to shuffle the menu on each load. The point of shuffle for a page layout, must be to make sure images/album ordering gets rotated randomly. For a menu, it should normally produce a consistent output, because a visitor will often create a "mind map" of the menu. Also, it seems a bit complicated to synchronize the shuffle of menu items with page items ... strictly speaking, its not shuffle
