I don't do much raster work these days, so haven't been motivated to add
such features to Worldmill. If I ever did, It would be minimal, just
enough to get the raster data into Numpy.

I've suspended my work on PCL for a bit. It's been a long time since
we've received any patches or feature requests for PCL. People who want
to make desktop GIS apps seem to be sticking to the QGIS Python stuff.
Web programmers who want to do some "neo-geography" (and this is more my
line of work these days) aren't interested in "GeoTools for Python" or
"the Zope of GIS", and this leaves PCL stuck in the middle. Shapely and
Worldmill are much more popular than PCL ever was.
