I'm sorry to ask such a basic question here, as it feels like I should be 
able to answer this for myself, but having a look at some relevant git and 
source code, I could not find the answer. I also could not find anything in 
the documentation and it seems the question is also unaddressed on this 
forum:

How does global refinement work in the case of simplices, and in 
particular, is it barycenter refinement? I suspect it would not be, since 
iterated barycenter refinement eventually produces a very bad mesh. Is if 
it is not the default, is it implemented at all? Or is this a case of one 
being better off importing a mesh from another program?

Nonetheless, barycenter refinement seems crucial for using Scott-Vogelius 
finite element spaces in either 2D or 3D. All the other necessary 
components (FE_SimplexP and FE-SimplexDGP are already present).
