   Could you please explain why you need to change the Mat? Our hope was that 
people would not need to change it. Note that you can change the type of a 
matrix at any time. So for example inside your FormJacobian you can have code 
like MatSetType(J,MATAIJ) this wipes out the old matrix data structure and 
gives you an empty matrix of the new type ready to be preallocated and then 
filled. Let us know what you need.
