I don't see why it is such a bad idea. Either we approximate a coefficient by interpolating it into a finite element space or we evaluate it at quadrature points. Just two different approaches to approximation. Besides, it's the only thing that currently works because of the bug in the quadrature code generation that I wasn't able to fix. The choice of element is controlled by the variable named "Family" in the function _auto_select_element_from_shape in expression.py. We can make this a global parameter and set the default to "Quadrature" once it works, but it's good to be able to use "Lagrange" (or anything else) for testing. -- Anders
