Dirk,

I just started looking into doing this from inside Paraview with
polydata rather than imagedata. The idea was the to be able to apply
the landmark filter to manually register two data sets without ever
leaving paraview. Do you think there is anything that could be taken
from this for my effort? Or should we leave this in a standalone QT
app and I'll continue doing it for Paraview?

Thanks,

David
