Hello!

In some code I have I uses the indices interface to set local dofs in a vector. It turns out that v[indices] = some_values uses the GenericVector::set function instead of GenericVector::set_local. This means that one need to pass global indices.

I typically use the slicing together with some combination of indices I got from the vertex_to_dofs functionality. However, now that returns local dofs and it then makes more sense to switch the behavior of v[indices] to use local dofs.

Any objections against switching to local indices in v[indices]?

I don't have any objections, but I also don't have a clear view of how we should interact with distributed vectors from Python re the NumPy wrapping. It's a bigger job, but it would be nice to think this through for a consistent interaction between distributed DOLFIN vectors and wrapping as NumPy objects.
