Referencing3D provides a MathTransform implementation capables to perform the 
following vertical height transformation:

    Geoidal height (WGS84)   <---->    Ellipsoidal height (WGS84)
    Geoidal height (WGS80)   <---->    Ellipsoidal height (WGS80)

This part is done (more tests are always welcome).

Now the hard part is actually in the referencing module itself, more 
specifically in the following class which is the one trying to figure out the 
MathTransform chain by itself given a (sourceCRS, targetCRS) pair:

This work is non-trivial and requires a good knowledge of 
DefaultCoordinateOperationFactory working...
