Oh! We have actual progress to report on that front; I have been trying 
to let GeoServer work with 3D data; and one of the optimizations Andrea 
asked for was the ability to throw away any data beyond X and Y (since 
it was not going to be used for rendering).

Thus was born the Hints.FORCE_2D - so if your datastore can support this 
hint (which is used by the renderer) we should be able to cut off the 
data before the render gets confused.

Is that an option?
