Welcome!  There are several places to start, e.g. we need a
convex_hull_objects function, as well as adapting rank filters to
handle int16 correctly (not as 12-bit integers).

Otherwise, I'd also keep an eye on IEEE Transactions on Image
Processing, and what other leading image processing packages
implement.

There are some pretty interesting segmentation and feature detection
applications of morphology too.  The sky's the limit :)

P.S. There are plenty of bugs to fix too:
