You can't use scatter(Entity<0> element, int c, int i). This would impose a restriction on grid implementations actually containing an edge object (like ALU) and passing this in a communication callback. More precisely, you could not even implement the suggested method through the current one. Hence, this would break all our parallel codes for some time.

By the way: What is the problem in allowing slim entity implementations that actually can only be used in index sets and id sets and report its partition type? The only additional thing an entity currently implements is its geometry. And I don't think many codes actually use this.
