----------
Discussing the renamings, I would also suggest that Geometry::corner (replacement for Geometry::operator[]) no longer returns a reference but (a copy of) the FieldVector.

Reasons:
* Only native DUNE implementations store their corners as FieldVectors. So the grid has to make a copy anyway or use a dirty cast.
* On-the-fly Grids, like YaspGrid, have to provide additional storage within the geometry to be able to return the references
* In time-critical code, this method should not needed anyway.

The only disadvantage I see is that the vector is copied (or generated) whenever "corner" is called. But the copying is hopefully optimized away be the compiler.
