It seems rather complicated for engineers to implement editing galleries that aren't even on the page you tried to edit them from to me, so it's probably just a lack of a feature and not a real bug. I don't think it would be prioritized for implementation either.

Hmmm... I'm not sure why you think that. If the source template of the gallery is known, the button would just edit that without the user knowing it was actually the template. I do think the button is being intentionally hidden, just because they don't want to deal with MediaWiki stuff. This is a pattern with all recent FANDOM dev. When was the last feature they added that actually integrated well with MediaWiki? I suspect we won't see any more features that integrate with MediaWiki indefinitely. They want to get away from it.

Having said that, I do agree it wouldn't be prioritized for implementation.
