Whoops sorry, I am wrong, it is Gallery that is horizontal. Anyway our primary navigation through data in the UI is vertical, so those are the widgets we have. We generally try to keep features out of the platform that aren't commonly used (especially in the built-in apps) because (a) they use space on the device (we are very short on space in the system image on the G1), and (b) they are likely to not be well tested, and thus buggy (see tabs).
