That makes sense.  I don't think the vtkDICOMImageReader even knows about
sequences.  If that is the case, then whatever attributes it reads from a
sequence will be treated as regular metadata and will overwrite
previously-discovered attributes.

I tried the file in my own vtk-dicom reader, and it displays just fine.  So
that eases my mind, at least.
