Description

[ Original title was: VTKWriter support for binary format broken ]

The VTK file format allows to use "inline" base64 encoded binary data. This data can also be compressed using zlib.

Currently vth VTK writer allows to specify binary as data format, but it is not supported. Also the support for zlib is missing.
