How does that give you a time axis in the 3D viewer?

AFAICT it takes all the slices of the current stack, one by one, turns
them into height fields _individually_, and then puts those height fields
into a new stack.

So rather than show XYZ data progressing in time, it takes an XYT
stack (two spatial dimensions and a time dimension), adds a (redundant)
3rd dimension reflecting the intensity of the slice's pixels, and puts the
result into another XYT stack.

Am I wrong?
