It is once again that I had to pay a few hours debugging to find out I
miss to merge coincident points after append filter. This is because I
was confused by vtkSTLWriter (that I used to output a test mesh) which
is merging the points in the mesh he writes. So I thought the mesh is OK
while it was not! I think STLWriter should not do it in order not to
fool the users. Or it at least should be an option (defaulting to
merging off). What do others think?
