Is it necessary to give no_comp as an argument to the constructor of a
NewFunction? I think this information should be contained in the
element.

A finite element generated by FFC (originally from FIAT) contains the
following two methods that can be used:

    unsigned int rank() const; 
    unsigned int tensordim(unsigned int i) const;

rank() returns 0 for scalars, 1 for vectors and so on. tensordim(0)
returns the number of vector dimensions for a vector-valued element.
