Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing alignment routines in sunkit-image and the reporter's Python implementation for temporally local image frames. Clarify the intended API and integration with the project's style before proceeding. Done means the new alignment function is integrated into the alignment suite and handles sequences with large scene changes.

Description

Feature Request

I would like to add to the suite of alignment routines that sunpy offers, bringing in a function that will align data based on series of temporally local image frames. This leads to more robust alignment of image sequences, especially if there is large changes in the scene over the sequence.

I brought this up in the google group a while back.

I have this implemented in python, but would be willing to re-write to fit in with the sunpy style.

This is may first attempt at submitting to a project like this, so would appreciate some guidance on how to contribute.
