If you create a reader that produces multiple outputs, ParaView will
automatically group them together. You can then extract one or more
"parts" using Extract Parts. If you want the Extract Parts GUI display
special name for parts, change your reader so that it creates an
vtkUnsignedCharArray named "Name" and containing the name of the part
and adds it to data object's field data. For an example, see
vtkEnSight6Reader ::CreateUnstructuredGridOutput().
