Yes- at some point we will end up with all sorts of display types, each of 
which takes one or more scalars, vectors, and matrices and describes how to 
combine that data and paint it.

Eventually, this situation will just be screaming to be made into a more 
modular framework :-)  And then in the Data Manager, we'll still have buttons 
for "create a new {vector, matrix, plugin, equation, etc}", but then we'll 
have a combobox listing all available "basecurves" currently on the system 
(curve, histogram, power spectrum, image, csd, vector field, rgb image, etc).

We are almost all the way there with the KstBaseCurve.  Hopefully when we 
really need the extra modularity (when the data manager is too big for the 
screen because of all the buttons on the left), it won't be too hard to 
implement...
