I know there is Exif data but I don't think that includes any titles.
It would require GD2, not imagemagick or other libraries, as GD2 is the most popular and often used by vB3 itself.

Is there a way you can just make the script rename the pictures file to a number? Then later people can just go back and retitle the images and add descriptions. A lot of people probably wouldn't care to add descriptions and titles anyway. Images should speak for themselves.
It doesn't matter what you do with the back end to me. Personally the problem in my mind with scripts like PP and Coppermine Gallery is that they are way to bloated on the user interface. They've got ratings and comments and smiles and everything but the kitchen sink. The user interface should be sleek and focus attention on the image and not the options.
If you can make the end interface look and feel like this:

then you have a winner on your hands IMO.
