Wouldn't a -dimension option to mincmath do the same thing but in one line?
I haven't tested it, so I'm not sure if it will allow accumulating the
maximum over image dimensions (the original question was for all 3
orthogonal projections). If it does not, then a mincreshape to re-order the
dimensions and a mincmath -dimension should do the trick for the other 2
dimensions.
