I was thinking along the lines of a vtkLookupTable that could take a
vtkAbstractArray as input instead of being limited to a vtkDataArray.
There would be a discrete set of allowed input values (that could be
strings).  It would probably be best not to hijack your annotations
for this purpose, the list of possible input strings (and their
mappings) would be distinct from your annotation labels.
