ImageJ Feature - Import -> Image Sequence

[Daniel Kalthoff]

Dear Community,

I am using the Image Sequence import quite a lot and it's very convenient that the labels of the imported stack reflect the filenames.
However, if the single images are stacks themselves and contain label information it is lost.

I checked the FolderOpener code and think two lines of code would solve my problem:

> String label2 = label; // this one's already there
> if (inputStack.getSliceLabel(slice) != null) label2 += ";" + inputStack.getSliceLabel(slice);

If this is of general interest could this be implemented into a coming version?

Thanks and best regards,

Daniel

I think there is value in that, but I'd like to have it guarded by a
checkbox that is off by default, for backwards-compatibility.
