From my point of view, there is probably more missing information that can be contained in the VTK object. Let's merge and keep adding features as they are needed.

For a pyvista mesh with some active dataset (expected to be used for the contour plot over the mesh), the pvmesh-mesh3d conversion taking place behind the scenes discards the data and simply plots the mesh.
Point data visualization is supported by plotly, so we can at least try to detect if the mesh being converted has an active point dataset, do some processing, and plot a contour over the mesh using it.

PS: I am not sure if this is the most robust way to handle this though. Maybe it requires more thought @AlejandroFernandezLuces ?
