I would be willing to consider adding something to the vtkScalarsToColors class to switch between sets of strings if we can come up with a clean API that preserves backwards-compatability -- but don't think the class should be responsible for generating a
string label for each value; it is very hard to get otherwise-rational people to agree on how to format numbers and vtkVarints as text. :-)<br>
