Also to have 1 or more images on each other page in the same way. And then I would like to specify that all these images belong to one gallery, such that upon clicking on one of these thumb images, I get the gallery scrollable as normal through all those images that belong to that gallery. Meanwhile on a particular page there are just a few of all possible thumbs of that gallery
As you already found out, you can specify one thumb of the gallery to be shown. If you want more thumbs to be shown, you can add tags to the gallery images (when editing the gallery) and then use one (or more) of the tags as in (% gallery name=mygallery tags=shirts %).
However, all these images matching the tags will be at one position on the page.

Yes, you can't specify a (% gallery ... %) with the same name twice on a page.

Yes, otherwise there may be problems with most of the gallery types

You would need an extra page (e.g. named mygallerypage) with the gallery tag e.g. (% gallery name=mygallery %). You could also specify autostart=true, if using e.g. prettyphoto.
On you other pages you would then add links like (% gallerylink name=mygallery url=mygallerypage thumb=1 %). This will show the 2nd image of the gallery and a click on this link would then open the page mygallerypage and show the gallery.
