I'm not sure about your implementation of L_INF.  You're taking

||e||_{\infty} = max_q |e(x_q)|

where x_q are the quadrature points.  In fact, isn't the solution
sometimes superconvergent at the quadrature points, and therefore this
approximation could drastically under-predict the L-infty norm?  I
don't know of an efficient, simple algorithm for estimating L-infty
error ... perhaps there is something out there?

My preference would be to leave out the L_INF calculation rather than
return a potentially wrong value, but I would like the other
developers (esp. Roy, who is on holiday now) to comment as well.
