The right answer is to use DMCreateInjection (https://petsc.org/release/docs/manualpages/DM/DMCreateInjection.html) to move fine grid state to coarse grid state (rather than DMCreateInterpolation and then VecPointwiseMult, which doesn't work for most discretisations). Matt: the interface to DMCreateInjection is now correct (it returns a Mat, rather than a VecScatter) so DMPlexComputeInjectorFEM (https://petsc.org/release/docs/manualpages/DMPLEX/DMPlexComputeInjectorFEM.html) should be updated to take advantage.
