[Paraview] [Non-DoD Source] XDMF makes paraview crash with JOIN

Hi Frederic,

have you been able to make progress on this issue?

I apparently ran into the same problem, which is quite frustrating since
there is currently no way to concatenate more than 10 data items, despite
having to independent implementations of the xdmf reader!

I filed two bug reports for these issues in ParaView (not sure though if
this is an ParaView/VTK or XDMF issue):
https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17516
https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17517

Please feel free to add more information or test cases to these bug reports
as well.

@Andrew: I have never seen the "$0|$1" syntax in any xdmf documentation.
When was this added and shouldn't this be mentioned in the xdmf wiki (
http://www.xdmf.org/index.php/XDMF_Model_and_Format#Function)?

Cheers,
Armin
