[Paraview] Bug in ExtractBlock?

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Nope, that's expected behavior. ExtractBlock will always still produce
a multi-block dataset. Without going too much into details, the
requirements of VTK pipeline make it tricky to write a filter that
produces a structured data-set from by extracting a block from a input
composite dataset.
