Normal slabbing operates at the pixel level, right at the end of the process. The internal plane slabbing (using "display within(....,someplane)") has to operate at an earlier stage in the process -- selecting atoms, so they are "all" or "none". You notice it here especially because Alan is using a large value for spacefill. Then, what I think makes this really cool is that I think he is recalculating the isosurface with every slide. (That right, Alan?) so you get the VERY COOL effect of the isosurface slabbing as well. Actually, Alan, how ARE you getting that isosurface to slab that way? What's your isosurface command?
