Looks to me like a bug/feature of the VTK pipeline. Apparently it
expects whole extents to be the same for all input structured data
sets.
See how just before vtkExecutive runs the algorithm's Request*()
methods in vtkExecutive::CallAlgorithm() it calls
CopyDefaultInformation(). In
vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline::CopyDefaultInformation() copies the
first input's whole extent to all outputs.
You might get around this by making your own executive with it's own
CopyDefaultInformation().
The actual error comes later at the start of the RequestUpdateExtent()
pass when vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline::VerifyOutputInformation()
happens.
