I don't think you are off base, but I'll review the background & code more
thoroughly. Certainly in the short term our XD{A,R} implementation should
handle all our functionality, but long term I really like the idea of
leveraging a more standard format, if possible.
I'll start looking in to how we might be able to get a refinement hierarchy
into ExodusII, or maybe augment a "flat" exodus mesh with the refinement tree
information required to "unflatten" it, but in the near term adding XD{A,R}
support for your features is certainly the right thing to do.
