Thank you Luca for the response. I see that manifolds will not work in the way I was expecting.
I want to map a fixed Cartesian mesh to some other domain, e.g., as in the work of Thomas Wick. So I dont want to modify the Cartesian mesh, as it is supposed to describe the reference domain. I am constructing a MappingFEField to achieve this mapping by solving some elliptic equation. To describe the displacement of the boundary of Cartesian mesh, I was hoping to attach a Manifold. But Manifold fixes vertex locations, So I think I should just fill boundary values of the euler_vector of MappingFEField myself and proceed.
