Just to share my finding, ParaViewGeo has a Shapefile reader plugin.

Several warnings are issued when I tried to compile the plugin in
conjunction with the latest git master of PV. Besides I don't know if
it is supposed to be a complete implementation, but as far as I tested
importing geometry worked.
