Action Items

1. ALL: (ongoing) triage the open issues and confirm if they are indeed still open (and perhaps provide labels)
2. KS, (DH, LM): Document describing what we think the mixed domain interface should look like (and hence what is needed in UFL, and whether it matches the existing fenics efforts).
3. DRS: See the related Firedrake issue, and start having a good at load/store plex objects. To make smart checkpoints
