For the Streaming and Manta plugins I took the approach of having the VTK and PV level code in sibling directories. The PV level was processed first and a variable set that changes the VTK level cmakelists behavior slightly (for example whether to findpackage vtk or not and whether to include ParaView centric VTK level classes). One tricky part was getting the ParaView client server wrapper and instantiators turned on for the VTK level directory. The plugin macros only take care of that for the ParaView level directory so the VTK level directory had to be done manually.
Note: The cmake code for those plugins has not yet been updated to work in VTK6/PV4 but making the VTK level directory a standard module should simplify things significantly (I hope).
