I found the discussion to be important so instead of continuing there I add my 2 cents here:

Requiring the user to call update at the correct places according to what the dolfin implementation under the hood requires at any particular time would be a massive blow to usability. How can anyone be expected to do that correctly without knowing in detail how dolfin components are implemented?
