Looks good, and most likely Johan H will maintain the Navier-Stokes
module.

I agree. We should also put in adaptivity, error estimation etc for
all solvers at some point.

It think we should put one very simple example (Poisson) in the
src/demo directory, maybe src/demo/fem or src/demo/poisson. We could
just copy from the current Poisson module. I think it's good to have
one demonstration example that is extremely simple.
