LightboxXL replacement

I might be wrong about this, but it looks to me less likely that
upstream is going to get some code changes done to fix their licensing
problems, timely enough for it to make a difference for us.

I started investigating some ways to replace troublesome code, and
found this:

It's actually a bit more elegant, licensed GPLv2+, and my hope is it
can be dropped in as a replacement for the illicit, CC-licensed
LightboxXL that's being used in a couple places.  I have absolutely no
skill in PHP so I can't sign up in good conscience to make these
changes.  

I could use help from somebody who knows how to try that proposed
change out to see if it helps.
