Hi, 

Would it be possible to add the possibility to compute custom quantiles with
astarithmetic on a given set of fits images? It would be a generalization of
the already existing "median" arithmetic operator, but allowing the user to
obtain any percentile they are interesting in. This would be extremely useful
to obtain asymmetric error images, for example. 

Best,
