This is a good question. Currently, we do not have an alternative to just
pulling out the inner solver and setting it directly. I don't
think the right thing is to have inner solvers follow outer solvers since
frequently they have much different convergence requirements.
Maybe we could provide a function name in an options and have it looked up
dynamically.
What do people think about that?
