I also have no conception of why they probably physically can't be merged [presumably they have different architectures and code bases.]
And a different language to top it all off. Merging them isn't going to happen.
As for the variable layer height, it's something that is pretty high on our feature list, but due to some dragons in our architecture it will require more work than is should / would have. This is the main reason why we don't have it already.

I've heard but not seen that stratasys software can do something like this (their high end suite.)
I don't see a lot of value over "infill thickness" (e.g, .1mm perimeters with .3mm infill.) But it is something neat enough that it would be cool if cura matched.
Sometimes I wish slic3r and cura were one software package, they both have a ton of strengths and end up doing a lot of redundant work. besides the general reasons for why they are not one project, I also have no conception of why they probably physically can't be merged [presumably they have different architectures and code bases.]
