Summary:                    Patch for missing or asymmetric get functionality
Description: 
There are some asymmetric or missing get macros/functions in vtk classes. In
most cases this is no real issue, however, it is a bit annoying in our automatic
wrapping process where we assume symmetric Set/Get functions (we need that for
generating MeVisLab modules for quite an amount of vtk classes; see
www.mevislab.de if you are interested in it). I also consider this a problem for
python or tcl script wrapping processes. 
The patch appended to this report adds many Get-Macros/Functions either because
no Get functionality exists at all or - if there is any - the symmetry to the
Set is not given.
It applies to the git checkout of the vtk 5.10 rc 1 tag.
