Falco,

It would be great to have models of 3-dimensional GIL concepts, so GIL
can be used for video, for example. 
I am not aware of anyone doing this so far.
I don't foresee any particular difficulties in extending GIL to 3D. If
you are interested in developing this extension I will be happy to help
with any questions you may have along the way.
