How do I disable the automatic generation of Hyperstacks?

Hi,
in the newer versions of ImageJ my stacks (lsm) open up as Hyperstacks. This is pretty disturbing, because
- I'd rather work on the original channels - as before,
- I can not see both channels at the same time anymore,
- the color scheme (red-green) is not suited for presentation because it is not readable for colorblind (check out this page: http://jfly.iam.u-tokyo.ac.jp/color/)
- a whole bunch of macros I wrote for image analysis is not working anymore.

Could this please changed back?
Or can we get a toggle somewhere to switch off this function?

I think most of us ImageJ-users love ImageJ for the direct access to their data, now with the hyperstacks there was an an unwanted layer introduced into  the data access. I think this was a step in the wrong direction. Am I alone with this perception?
Best,
