[integration wishlist] handle DcmMeta from dcmstack #31

There is a dcmstack project (https://github.com/moloney/dcmstack) by https://github.com/moloney which "allows series of DICOM images to be stacked into multi-dimensional arrays. These arrays can be written out as Nifti files with an optional header extension (the DcmMeta extension) containing a summary of all the meta data from the source DICOM files." more info: https://dcmstack.readthedocs.org/en/v0.6.1/Introduction.html It would be nice if nifti2dicom could use DcmMeta preserved by the dcmstack

It would be a very useful feature, but unfortunately it is not supported by ITK, and I could not find a C++ implementation. Maybe it could be implemented in the ITK nifti file reader...
