[Paraview] issue with Contour on ImageData & UnstructuredGrid...

[Berk Geveci]

I think you are out of luck here. The clip filter uses a different
algorithm than cut/contour because it needs to break cells into tets
to create a bounded volume (instead of producing triangles). This
algorithm creates the artifacts that you are seeing. This is on our
list of things to fix but it is not a straightforward fix.
