[yt-dev] inline profiles

Hi all,

this is about inline Enzo+yt, but since I think the solution might be
on the yt end, I'm sending it here.

I am attempting to profile halos located inline, and I am running into
trouble when I attempt to profile over the 'TotalMassMsun' field. It
is dying when it tries to access the 'Dark_Matter_Density' field,
which I think it expects to be available, but isn't because Enzo only
produces that when it writes to disk (AFAIK?). If this sounds correct
to those in the know, I'd like to ask if anyone has a good idea how to
get around this? Should I make a derived field (perhaps over-writing
the built-in 'Dark_Matter_Density') using CICDeposit? I suppose I
could try this solution first without emailing y'all, but I was
thinking that if I/we find a working solution, it could be added to yt
so the next person doesn't have to figure it out, so I'd like to
minimize the false starts of poor/incorrect implementations.

Thanks for your comments.
