Some of my thoughts:
1). I agreed that we haven't take full advantage of modular VTK in ITK yet.
VtkGlue module itself should only depends on several VTK modules
instead of entire VTK_LIBRAIRES.
2) When building ITK, ITK_LIBRAIRES should include all depending libraries
turned on by enabled modules.
Users then should be able do
* Find( ITK Required ITKCommon ITKVtkGlue) *
in their itk application code without specifying "Find(VTK .....)" in
their own code, unless their code depends on
some other vtk modules which are not specified in VtkGlue's dependency
list.
