We could do something. If a Form knows whether it's bilinear, linear or 
a functional, DofMapping could return suitable maps.

Some of the functions in FEM can be removed once DofMapping is actually 
used. I would have been disappointed if you didn't have any comments, 
that's why I haven't incorporated DofMapping yet in FEM  :).
