[Paraview] Pre-load python macros & toolbar icons?

[pat marion]

There is no way to do this right now, but if you want to try what Dave
said, write an autostart plugin, the plugin can programatically add
python macros.  I can give you a hint if you want to try this.

No way to associate an icon with the macros.  Currently macros are
stored in the paraview settings file as <label, filename> pairs.  This
could be extended to store qrc icon filenames without too much
trouble.
