Gallery post format is difficult to control

The main issue is that there is no way to determine which image will be shown on the main blog page because currently the code uses order_by = menu_order but the use of menu_order has been removed and all images are set to 0.
It would be simple to change the order_by to use the upload date/time but that is a rather inelegant solution. I would prefer it to somehow extract the image order from the [gallery] shortcode's id attribute and show the first image listed.
