Currently, the QmitkMeasurement application / PlanarFigure framework does not guarantee that the PlaneGeometry used for initializing is always aligned to the dataset on which the measurement is conducted.

To make things more consistent, it should be ensured that only PlaneGeometry objects describing exactly one plane of an image are used in QmitkMeasurement, so that each slice has exactly one corresponding plane on which measurements can be done.

The application could optionally allow for measurements in arbitrarily oriented and aligned planes. The default, however, should be restricted to transversal/sagittal/coronal planes aligned to the image voxels centers.
