Wolfgang,

Thank you for your time.

Ok, thank you for that comment, I'd better do some more thinking on that 
then.

Done, this is issue 4092 now.

Can I calculate a 3d-Vector Field that only depends on two spacial 
Koordinates, in this case (E_x(x,y),E_y(x,y),E_z(x,y))? That, I think, 
means E is a function E: R^2->R^3. Even more general: in the Documentation 
about the VectorTools::project_boundary_values_curl_conforming_l2 function, 
there is something written about a six-component Vektor-Field, combining E 
and B, in 3d space. I did not find any hints on how to actually write that 
other than with FE_System.

Regards,

Felix
