Lets see. Plex does support geometrically non-conforming meshes. This is
how we support p4est. However, if
you want that, you can just use DMForest I think. So you jsut want
structured AMR?

What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their
experiments is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their
experiments lead.
