Hi Mike,

but currently few (no?) image plugins actually implement readHeightField.  I
didn't necessarily want to tie to gdal per se, but it seemed a quick converter
from raster to height data.

I was pondering a generic heightfield pseudoloader like:
        osgviewer data.png.heightfield

You still need information on the origin, x,y,z scales, and rotation,
this alot of info that would awkward to encode in a psuedo loader.

Perhaps the right way to go is to embrace scripted languages and have
a quick script build a height field for the components parts.  This
way you arn't coding lots of different specialist users demands in an
every increasingly number of neiche loaders.
