I'd like to propose that at least for the Demo Phone milestone, we combine the Camera and Gallery app into a single app for capturing and viewing photos.

Until we have WebRTC's getUserMedia(), the Camera "app" is really just a file picker (hopefully with a camera capture dialog) and there's currently no way of getting new photos into the Gallery.

Combining the two apps solves both the problem of how to save a photo from the Camera app in the Gallery app and how to get new photos into the Gallery, thereby making both apps actually useful!

What do you think @fabricedesre @cgjones ? I will also discuss this with UX tomorrow.
