[Paraview] Can sources use filenames in property panels?

[clinton at elemtech.com]

I just committed a change in CVS to help you.
Put back your FileListDomain in your properties.
But add an XML hint to show the properties in the panel.
The fix I put in puts it in the sources menu if the show hint is there.

<SourceProxy ....>
   .....
     <Hints>
       <Property name="FileName" show="1"/>
     </Hints>
</SourceProxy>
