DataPostprocessor computes values in certain evaluation points that are not
(necessarily) related to any given finite element space.
On the other hand, KellyerrorEstimator expects a finite element vector.
What you need to do is to represent the vorticity in some finite element
space.
You would typically either interpolate or project with respect to this new
space.
