Oh.. Knee Jerk Reaction.. I guess I still need that cup of coffee yet
this morning ;-)
Yes. I use it. Yes I would like it to stay if it does not cause any
problems.

Read again carefully and this time look for the "in fact it still
exists, but probably nobody uses it any more since plugins have
improved so much" - I actually use it myself, so I'm playing deveils
advocate, but I like plugins better now...

That is not is ParaView anymore? When did it go away? I use it all
the time and recommend it to my first time users to compile their
own filters. I would vote to keep the functionality if it is not
causing problems for other parts of the build.
Why was it removed? Is it removed in CVS or 3.4?

I have some users who want to compile paraview, and a couple of
selected plugins, and then do a single "make install"
I've added PARAVIEW_EXTRA_EXTERNAL_PLUGINS to the main paraview
cmake, which allows you to enter
vtkCSCSCommon;vtkCSCSFluent;vtkCSCSNetCDF etc etc etc
and then it prompts for paths to the sources, and compiles them at
the same time as paraview itself.
Does anyone else need this functionality? Shall I add it to cvs?
It's very simple - but does make life easier for the less
experienced users (to manage one build instead of two).
