0007174: Selection does not work in parallel if compositing is off
Since selection requires compositing, it should try to use it even if the user turned it off. If ParaView detected that compositing is not available (i.e. vtkPVDisplayInformation reports no display with CanOpenDisplay false), it should report an error to the user.
No tags attached.

Unless limited by hardware i.e DISPLAY setting or color depth etc., selection will always automatically result in a remote render. Hence, even if the user manually disabled remote rendering, we'd still be able to do remote renders for sake of selection.

For now, I am simply raising vtkErrorMacro() errors if remote rendering is not possible due to DISPLAY issues etc. When BUG 0006539 is fixed, the selection toolbar buttons will be disabled when selection is not possible at all.
