I see that you've centralized some of the code recently but you still need to
enable EGL or Mesa at build time, and that can still be a bit tricky, right?

Would it at all be possible to support one VTK build that has all the possible
options available?  i.e. EGL, OSMesa, and the normal backend?  Or is that simply
impossible to do on all platforms?  Would it make sense to bundle OSMesa with
VTK?  At least on Linux this would make many things very convenient.

Prabhu
