     from the specified file. This allows one to explicitly specify the region
     distribution and still have multiple cellZones per region.
 
-    - useCellZonesOnly does not do a walk and uses the cellZones only. Use
-    this if you don't mind having disconnected domains in a single region.
-    This option requires all cells to be in one (and one only) cellZone.

     - prefixRegion prefixes all normal patches with region name (interface
     (patches already have region name prefix)
