I don't know if it's safe, but as for now it works, and for NS it can
give you speed-up of more than an order of magnitude. It does not work
in parallel of course.

Anyway, just wanted you to know that people are using the subfunction
functionality for more than setting boundary conditions:)

Bug description:
Hi,

I have trouble using MixedFunctionSpace. Basically I want to project a function to a subspace of a MixedFunctionSpace:

   from dolfin import *
   mesh=UnitInterval(10)
   U = FunctionSpace(mesh, "CG", 1)
   V = FunctionSpace(mesh, "CG", 1)
   W=U*V
   f1=Function(W.sub(0))
   f1.vector()[:]=1.0
   #f2=project(f1, V)   # This works!
   f2=project(f1, W.sub(1))  # This doesn't!


The output of that script is attached to the end of this question. Now, the confusing thing is that the projection works fine if one projects to V instead of W.sub(1), although they are mathematically the same spaces. 

I hope I haven't missed a similar question already reported. 

Best wishes,

Simon
