I have a miniature horse that definitely prefers gaiting when in harness. He also trots and canters but has a definite saddle rack or singlefoot gait, and he is quite happy doing it and actually seems to prefer it when harnessed and pulling his cart.

If a horse can't jump in the wild, especially if its getting chased by a predator and there's a log in the way, then the horse would stop and it will die. Horses have agility and yes THEY CAN JUMP. Don't let people fool you because jumping is one of many horse natural abilities. However, you need to train gaited horses before you go all crazy, remember that gaited horses don't have the same muscles as non-gaited horses do, just do some training and hire a trainer to help you. ALL horses can jump the trainer and the rider just need to put their heart into it.
