I have a few questions and thoughts regarding the new Function design

* It's not clear to me what the intention is with user-defined 
functions. The functions Function::interpolate(...) never call eval(..), 
so they can't pick up user-defined values. Should Function::interpolate 
test for the presence of a GenericVector to decide whether or not the 
Function is discrete or user-defined?

* It would be useful to declare user-defined functions without 
associating a FunctionSpace. If we want to interpolate the function, a 
FunctionSpace must then be provided. Anyone see any problems with this?
