[Paraview] filter accepting multiple inputs: possible with one vtkMulitiGroupDataSet and one vtkDataSet?

[Berk Geveci]

Hi Shawn,

This seems to be a bug (although not related to what John is describing).
Somehow, the input menu gets populated by composite and simple data objects.
Unless the bug is fixed, there doesn't seem to be a way around it.
