    // ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    // Specifies refinement level for cells in relation to a surface. One of
    // three modes
    // - distance. 'levels' specifies per distance to the surface the
    //   wanted refinement level. The distances need to be specified in
    //   increasing order.
    // - inside. 'levels' is only one entry and only the level is used. All
    //   cells inside the surface get refined up to the level. The surface
    //   needs to be closed for this to be possible.
    // - outside. Same but cells outside.

    // NOTE: This point should never be on a face, always inside a cell, even
    // after refinement.
    //
    // There are two different ways of specifying the regions to keep:
    // 1. a single locationInMesh. All the 'zoned' surfaces are marked as such

    //
    // or
    //
