[Paraview] Coordinates and normal vectors

[Berk Geveci]

You can select which array to label by in the selection inspector. I
realized that point coordinates is not an option there. Can you submit
a feature request here: http://paraview.org.Bug? As a temporary work
around, you can use the array calculator to copy the point coordinates
into an attribute. Set the expression to be coords.
