[Paraview] Showing XDMF multiblock grid names on Extract

Hello,

I'm creating an XDMF "temporal collection of spatial collections" to  
group my time series data and view it in ParaView. It works great,  
except that when I do an "Extract Block" I have to choose from a list  
of generic names like this:

Root
     Block 0
         DataSet 0
         DataSet 1
         DataSet 2
         DataSet 3

so I (or my users) have to remember which block is which.

In the XMF file each DataSet has a Grid Name. Is there any way to have  
ParaView show these grid names rather than the generic default names?  
(They don't show up in the Information tab, for reference, either -- I  
have to look back at the XMF file...)

Thanks,
-Eric
