[petsc-dev] Why are the DMDALocalToLocal* not DM commands?

There was a massive purge where Barry renamed a bunch of the DA commands to
either DMDA or moved them over to DM, causing much wailing and gnashing of
teeth, but eventual grudging acceptance that he probably did the right
thing :)

I must be missing something, because I don't see why DMDALocalToLocal*
shouldn't be DMLocalToLocal* to follow this new paradigm.
