One requirement for 3D is that the third dimension of points is honoured in reprojections and spatial operations. 2.5D is IMO when a third dimension is carried along for the ride but ignored for operations and reprojections. We have some tested 3D support for POINT and LINESTRING including reprojection and 3D WFS BBOX, but only on Oracle 11g with SC4O and on PostGIS 2.

One of the underlying problems is that there is not yet any 3D equivalent of the Java Topology Suite (JTS) used for 2D geometric calculations. I think there might have been some mention recently of a project, but I do not know anything about it.
