Regarding stringsAsFactors: I'm not going to defend keeping it as is, I'll let the people who like it defend it.
Would someone (anyone) like to come forward and give us a defense of stringsAsFactors=TRUE -- even someone who doesn't personally like it but would like to play devil's advocate?
What I will likely do is make a few changes so that character vectors are automatically changed to factors in modelling functions, so that operating with stringsAsFactors=FALSE doesn't trigger silly warnings. Duncan Murdoch
