#Improve map cluster click behavior — show gallery instead of opening first image

Description:

When using the map view in Immich, clicking on a cluster (the circular marker with a number) currently opens the first image in detail view. This behavior is unintuitive, especially when the cluster contains multiple photos.

Expected behavior:

Clicking on a cluster should open a gallery view showing all images within that cluster, allowing the user to browse them before selecting one for detail view.

Why this matters:

Improves user experience and consistency with other parts of the app

Makes it easier to explore grouped photos by location

Avoids confusion when expecting a gallery but being dropped into a single image

Suggested implementation:

On cluster click, open a modal or gallery view with thumbnails of all images in that group

Allow filtering or sorting within that view if possible

Thanks for the amazing work on Immich — this feature would make the map view even more powerful and intuitive!
