[vtkusers] streamline & streakline

[Berk Geveci]

There is no immediate plan for a streakline filter. Has there been support 
for time
variant vector fields in VTK, it would have been relatively easy to write a 
filter
which computes particle paths. It would also have been trivial to extend 
that to something
which computes streaklines. If anybody has any VTK code which does any of 
this, I would be
happy to help them incorporate it into the distribution.
