[Paraview] Bad triangulation for Polygon

OK, I'll try again without the attachments...
For polygons with lobes, the tests I've done with ParaView don't give correct surface triangulation.
In the case where the object comes from my custom reader, using output->SetPolys(myCellsPtr); it produces a surface that doesn't stay within the polygon boundary, and applying the Delaunay2D filter to the polyline object (SamplePolygon1Cell.vtk) also 'blobbs' the polygon.
See links in earlier message -a correct surface triangulation (SamplePolySurface.jpg), and the ParaView result (PV_Delaunay2D_Polygon.jpg)
I'm currently doing my own triangulation using 'hgrd_src' routines from CodeProject, but if there is a better way to get the correct results within ParaView I'd be happy to try it.
Here is the VTK object (SamplePolygon1Cell.vtk):
