The ExternalData_OBJECT_STORES option comes from the CMake ExternalData<br>
module. It is not specific to any one project like VTK. The content<br>
stored in the named location(s) is content-addressed and therefore can<br>
never have conflicts across projects. It can even share copies of<br>
identical data used by multiple projects.<br>
