ok, now I understand.

Good to see that the abstractions I made (the format dictionaries)
were almost general enough for you to actually add a new format.

Have you looked at dofmap.py and pointmap.py? These generate code for
mapping of dofs from the reference element. They are currently
somewhat DOLFIN specific but I think they could also be generalized.
