Very nice. The brevity of this code suggests that it would not be too hard
to integrate this into at least the python wrappers of VTK. The issue is
that we normally must implement a fix for all wrapped languages at once
(Java and Tcl too), and there is hardly anyone who can easily do all three
by themselves. Getting this fix in would likely require some coordination
from multiple developers.
