Description

4D geometries are "flattened" down to 2D (using Force2D) while 3D geometries (both 3DZ and 3DM) are kept that way.
This is inconsistent. Either we should allow 3d, thus forcing 4D to 3d (3dz or 3dm) or we should never flat and keep
all the dimensions. If we flat to 3d we should choose whether we keep Z or M and if we keep Z I guess we can then
flatten down 3dM to 2D as well...
