I will note that we (Barry, Jed, Mark, and I at least) have adopted the
view that by and large
a) global vectors are for solvers
b) local vectors are for assembly
For me, that means local vectors have ghost values and boundary conditions,
but global vectors
have them removed. This is how SNES ex12 and ex62 are organized.
Thanks,
Matt

experiments is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their
experiments lead.
