I've been watching that development, but I don't have a feel for 
where it could be applied in this case, since it appears to be 
focused on multi-dimensional slices of the same data type, 
slicing up a single range.

The dataframes often consist of different data types by column.

How did you see the nd slices being used?

Maybe the nd slices could be applied if you considered each row 
to be the same structure, and slice by rows rather than operating 
on columns.  Pandas supports a multi-dimension panel.  Maybe this 
would be the application for nd slices by row.
