[vtkusers] Removing a cell from a cell

[jarv0075]

For example:

Say I have a circle, and a smaller circle, both on the same plane

I want to remove the smaller circle from the larger one, but cannot just
\'pick\' the cells since they\'re two separate objects.

(of course in my case it\'s not just circles but the approach should be the
same)
