Dear Together
I would pay up to 100 USD immediately for this feature:
Create a time-limited (3 days for example) URL to get access to an Album OR single Image WITHOUT a Account+Password. The Gallery is set to private.
Use Case: Gallery is and will be in private mode 4ever. Family Accounts are uploading their content but sometimes they want to publish some fotos or a gallery to friends. Friends should NOT have an account, they are not family and it should be simple. Family Account can click "create access URL for 7 days" > and send the url to the friend . The friend can access the album/image behind the secure url for X days.
If this will not be a feature for zenphoto's future, who can create a plugin? I'll pay.

My colleague will be better to answer in details. Generally Zenphoto only knows specific rights on top album level, not for specific sub albums or individual images. The reason is the file system base of the gallery (Glossary gallery = Zenphoto site, collection of images = album). So your request ist not really as simple as it sounds.
This is what you can do already (in case you didn't know):
