We did have a MatrixToImage actor at some point, but it was
not well written, and it was hard to use to get good images.

If you want to take this on, I strongly recommend looking
at Matlab for inspiration...  Alternatively, you can just
use the MatlabExpression actor... The Matlab demo in the quick
tour generates a beautiful 4-D plot (3-D + time) of moving waves...
