I'm running into some problems with the new Function design when trying 
to update a solver. I'll try to sketch the issue as simply as possible.

     Function v;
     Function u, p;

     // First form for U = (u, p)
     FirstBilinearForm a_1(V1, V1);
     FirstLinearForm   L_1(V1);
     LinearPDE pde_first(a_1, L_1);

     // Second form which depends on u
     SecondBilinearForm a_2(V2, V2);
     SecondLinearForm   L_2(V2, u);
     LinearPDE pde_second(a_2, L_2);

     Function U;
     for(uint i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
     {
       pde_first.solve(U);

       // This step breaks down because FunctionSpaces don't match
       u = U[0];
       p = U[1];

       pde_second.solve(v);
     }

The problem is in assigning Functions since we now check the FunctionSpace.

To get around this, I tried

     FunctionSpace V(mesh);
     Function U(V);
     Function u = U[0];
     Function p = U[1];

which throws an exception because U does not have a vector.

Any suggestions on how to address this? Should we have a function that 
allows assignment of a Function irrespective of the Function space 
(Function::assign(const Function&))?
