As per our internal discussion I am not a fun of this approach as it
exposes a low level, software specific representation of statistics while
we should have a first class object.

I would consider improving this as part of this work, but I would delay
until the end and we concentrate first on the functionality we are seeking.
At the end I would consider the possibility to:

-1- introduce a first class statistics object in GeoTools CoverageReader
-2- Have that read GDAL Stats depending on the format
-3- Introduce the ability to compute and persist stats in GeoServer when
they are not available from the underlying store. This one is tougher as it
might need to be implement asynchronously or large rasters.

Agreed, see my point above for future plans.

Again, see above. Let's start simple and then revisit.

Not from me, I just would like to have better isolation/abstraction in
GeoTools/GeoServer from format/plugin specific representations of
statistics like the GDAL Pam ones which we are using right now.
