And for that very purpose  "Plot on Sorted Lines" filter was recently added
to CVS.  It sorts the points so that the numbering of vertices is
monotonously increasing. For the multiblock-case, you'll have to do a couple
of operations: Merge Blocks -> Extract Surface -> Plot on Sorted Lines which
will merge the multiblock into a single dataset and then sort and plot them.
