[Paraview] Client Side plugins dependent on all server side libraries?

The thing that has seemed odd to me is this compulsion to split a plugin into server and client pieces.  In my not very humble opinion you should just place everything in one plugin that is loaded on both client and server, which usually makes things much easier for both plugin developer and end user.  Add some CMake code to not compile the Qt and GUI stuff if the ParaView was not built.
