[Paraview] ProxyProperty and homonyms

[David E DeMarle]

In vtkSMProxyProperty::ReadXMLAttributes() (and it's parent classes),
I do not see any attribute similar to Exposed or Shared in the XML
parser.

You might be able to work around it by making new proxies for
SmoothPolyDataFilter, and then changing the name of the property in
your version.
