FYI- This might be of interest to some folks, and it could be a nice addition to ParaView:

I just merged a new filter that smooths _point attribute data_. There are several VTK filters that smooth mesh geometry, but this uses a Laplacian edge-connected smoothing kernel to smooth attribute data. It can be handy to smooth out noise and interpolation artifacts. Input is a vtkDataSet.
