multiple sheets. I can even select multiple sheets at once, so that 
any action can apply to corresponding cells on multiple sheets. In 
other words, I am able to select a cell range in your third dimension.

How does this differ from multiple sheets labelled "alpha", "beta", and so on?

I think you should write the code.
