Send email is right round the corner, along with some new contact form option that can be included in textpages.
Shopping cart is a little further down the line, and I think we will aim for a stable release before we get our hands dirty with e-commerce. I can guarantee you it is something that we want to integrate within reasonable time.

You mean a language option before they enter the gallery altogether? You could create your own page with links to the gallery in all languages. See my post here:

Speaking for myself, I think it just creates more unnecessary clicks for the user. It is a gallery, not a website, and most navigation/controls are pretty intuitive and easy to understand. Also most users understand the terms "next/previous" so why not keep it english if you are in doubt? If your audience is strictly a specific country/languages, then set it to that ...
