// .NAME vtkDiscreteModelEntityGroup - An object to store a group of model entities.
// .SECTION Description
// An object that stores a group of model entities of the same EntityType.
// This class stores an association to those types as well as those
// types storing an association to this.  Note that a vtkModelEntity can
// belong to multiple vtkDiscreteModelEntityGroups (including none at all).
