What about the tabulate_tensor function taking arguments for runtime 
quadrature rules, as we discussed a while ago? ATM I hacked UFC and my 
generated form files having an additional function

virtual void tabulate_tensor(double* A,
                             const double * const * w,
                             const ufc::cell& c,
			     dolfin::uint num_quad_points,
			     const double * const * coordinates,
			     const double * weights) const

Such an interface would add a flexible layer for those who wants to have 
some type of runtime quadrature.

General opinons about that?

Cheers,
Andre
