[vtkusers] Scene Linked in Multiple Windows

Hey there folks,

I am fairly new to VTK and I've been playing around with vtkRenderer,
vtkRenderWindow and vtkRenderWindowInteractor in C++ ( but I guess I'd
want to do the same thing in Tcl ).  What I want to do is construct a
scene and then be able to hand that scene to the viewport for viewing
from a different view/using a different camera.  On top of that it would
be cool to have the vtkRenderWindowInteractor's work together, ie. I
pick and object in one viewport and it ends up picked in all the
others.  Is this something that is possible using the current
classes/methods or will a new Interactor have to be derived to do this?
I guess what I am describing is more of a Scene Graph with various
cameras hanging off and I want to look through each camera in a
different window and have the interaction with the scene affect the
graph directly.

Thanks - Colin.
