[vtkusers] Drawing objects interactively in VTK..??

[Darshan Pai]

When you are selecting points on the screen they are in display coordinates.
You need to basically unproject it by multipying with the inverse MPV (
model-projection-viewport) matrix . Also you need to specify the depth from
the near clipping plane thats defined .
