The new structure in the XdrIO class actually permits several options, and
writing a file where the elements have subdomain ids set *should* do the
right thing.

Take a look at reference_elements/3D/one_hex.xda in the svn head.

The line

n/a      # subdomain id specification file

Says there are no subdomain ids in the current file, and if instead you
change it to

.       # subdomain id specification file

Then the ids should be read in the element connectivity section immediately
following the element type id.

The intent is to admit the following:

"mymap.ids" # subdomain id specification file

Where the ids will be read from file, but this is not yet implemented.

Sorry this is not well documented (yet).
