If I understand correctly, you want discontinuous and overlapping basis
functions with the same global support as the P1 tent functions. Unless you
find a clever trick for how to treat this (perhaps via some linear algebra
using P0 elements in combination with some suitable constraints), this
looks difficult to implement in FEniCS. We assume each element is defined
locally on triangles/tetrahedra.
