BIAP2 : Slicecopy

Sometimes we have a biiig images and we don't want to load the whole array into memory. In this case it is useful to be able to load as a proxy:

img = load('my_huge_image.nii')

and then take out individual slices, as in:

slice0 = img.slicecopy[...,0]

OK - so the previous line introduces the proposal and the problem. Why slicecopy?

As from the previous discussion - types of images - an image may be a proxy or an array.
