[Papervision3D] apply filters to object in PV3d scene

[niki77]

when you use 'useOwnContainer' you can sure if there is only one object
exposed to the defined filter
and it works only after loading completion
viewport layer will be more useful when you want to put some objects
together in a layer, and
filters work for them together
