You are correct that the "Birth and Death" feature is the only way to introduce new elements during solution and preserve the solution history.  Is it possible that you could create a mesh that would envelope the potential domain and then select elements from that domain as needed.  It seems odd though that you don't know the future geometry and material properties in advance.   Why is that?
