[Paraview] Export python programmable filters ?

[Berk Geveci]

As Dave mentioned, the best way of doing what you want is to wrap the
programmable filter in a custom filter. We are planning some
improvements that will make this better by the next release:

- Custom readers
- Custom writers
- Capability of defining parameters of a programmable filter that will
be exposed in the GUI
