I'm, say, 30% of the way through this already (from FEAbstract work, etc.);
there was a devel thread on this - I

Since various FEMSystem changes are on their users' minds lately, it
might be good to mention some more serious changes I'd been
considering for some time after the next official libMesh release:
1. Separate the "output" parts of the Context classes into a separate
class. Right now we're passin
