I want to be able to name each timestep of my *.pvd file, sort of described here:

Upon further investigation I discovered that the support was already 
there for the EnSight reader, so adding it to the XMLCollecitonReader 
was trivial.  It is present as of revision 1.10 of 
vtkXMLCollectionReader.cxx in the CVS version of ParaView.

I cannot figure out how to add this to my xml file.  Could someone please provide an example? Thank you
