Alan,

Attached is a state file (using can.ex2) which indeed uses numpy.trapz() to
do the work. It needs a small patch to be applied to VTK (attached) to
avoid a segfault.

The Programmable Filter adds a new row-data array named "trapz" which is
the result of the operation (it's repeated so we can add it to RowData
rather than field data.
