Description
`Dataset` has a `ImgPlus>`. This is wrong for multiple reasons:
1. `RealType` is not general enough. We need to support at least `ComplexType` as well, if not all `Type`s. See [ImageJ Trac ticket #845](http://trac.imagej.net/ticket/845) for related discussion.
2. `? extends RealType` causes many issues with the compiler. We might need to bite the bullet and have `Dataset` be generically typed. See also #12.

Research direction
Start by reading the Dataset declaration using ImgPlus> and the related discussion in ImageJ Trac ticket #845 and issue #12. Clarify whether Dataset should support ComplexType or all Type implementations and whether it must become generically typed; done means the chosen type model avoids the reported compiler problems.
