I'm not sure it belongs in a gallery. It would be like seeing a stuffed animal on a wall. Does it look cool? Sure. Would it look better in it's natural environment? Absolutely.
Also, it takes away the whole, "I've seen a Banksy" aspect. The fleeting nature is one of the aspects that makes it great, like a meteor shower or a "murmuration". I also like that street art evolves as the surrounding evolve. I can see both sides too but think I more "anti"-gallery.
