0010324: Translucent polygons do not always render correctly infront of a vtkImagePlaneWidget
When I have a scene that includes both translucent polygonal geometry and an Imageplane widget, the translucent object fails to render at all when infront of the plane. The renderer is sensitive to the order the actors are added : if the planeWidget is turned on after the translucent geometry, it appears buggy. If the planeWidget is turned on before, the scene looks OK.

This may be a limitation of the alpha-blending, since depth peeling works OK.

I have attached a version of the modified version of the Medical1 example that displays the issue. [Link with additional library : vtkWidgets]
No tags attached.

The uploaded PNG files show the problem : buggyHead looks bad - the skin surface is not rendered at all infront of the image plane. okHead looks more like it should do, with only a few artefacts from the alpha-blend rendering.
