I think this is something we should eventually implement as it is one of the 
most often requested features. Maybe this could be achieved during the code 
jam at the deal.II workshop...

As for the general approach: can you modify your algorithm so that instead of 
having a loop over all active cells and seeking their parents, you loop over 
*all* cells (active or not) and if a given cell has children then do whatever 
needs to be done on the the current cell (i.e. the parent of the child you 
have just discovered)? You'd do the same work as in what you wanted to do, 
just the order of active cells is different.
