I agree, vtk viz power + octave should be a must have.

That would be great: vtk classes power + high level plotting functions. Now,
if there is a lightweight vtk pipeline editor, that would be even better.

To achieve this, would it be by creating highlevel VTK classes, that resemble to the basic matlab objects, for example ?
