Curved high order Pk quadrangles (k >= 1), in 2d or 3d geometries, are supported. These quadrangles have additional edge-nodes and face-nodes.

first vertex, then edge-node, following the edge numbering order and orientation, and finally the face internal nodes, following the quadrangle lattice. See below for edge numbering and orientation.
