Right on, but I think we're saying the same thing, albeit with different nomenclature. Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that:
  Multi-layer = Multi-page = multi-image
And if I'm correct, this patch has exactly what you're looking for.

TIFFs,. hugin the free software panorama stiching tools (or at least
some of the components it is built from) prefer such a format. If
there really is one preferred way of doing this with TIFFs - I think
should welcome a patch that implements it.
