The first special case is for initializing a Function with a given Vector, by 
constructing a dofmap from the handed element.

As constructing a Function from a vector is removed from the cpp interface, 
and we have not, (or have we?) figured out how to wrap a shared_ptr in swig, 
we should probably just remove the first case for now.
