get_PhysicalSizeZ() function missing in Pixels #96

Hey, I am using python-bioformats package to read in 3D confocal microscopy images. I've noticed that while you can easily get the physical scale in the XY plane with get_PhysicalSizeX or get_PhysicalSizeY functions, there is no equivalent method for the Z-axis. At least in .CZI files one can get this by parsing OME XML and extracting ScalingZ. Just wondering why the method get_PhysicalSizeZ is not implemented in general.
