feature request for Binner

[tischi]

Hi,

When running below ImageJ macro...

newImage("Untitled", "8-bit black", 256, 254, 11);
run("Bin...", "x=3 y=3 z=3 bin=Average");

... the resulting image has 3 z-planes, indicating that the Binner discards the information in slices 10 and 11 of the original data. One other choice of implementing the Binner would have been that the resulting image has 4 z-planes, where its 4th z-plane is computed from the information in planes 10 and 11 of the original data.

I feel both options are valid, for me personally at the moment the latter option would be better, in order to preserve all content of my data.

Would it be possible to add an option such that the user can choose between the two behaviors?
