I did this to a) make it backwards compatible with what was there before and b) because I was reluctant to start creating a big type hierarchy. This way I can have it take PetscFE or PetscFV and maybe something else. Then I figure out where a type hierarchy makes sense, or a single type, or this just does not work at all.
