how to flatten a list to the same level?

Try something about like this:

split(unlist(l), rep(1:length(idx <- rapply(l, length)), idx))
I have a nested list l like:

l <- list(A=c(1,2,3), B=c("a", "b"))
l <- list(l,l, list(l,l))

I want the list to be unlisted, but not on the lowest level of each
"branch".
I want the lowest level of each list branch to remain as it is.
So unlist or unlist(rec=F) do not work here as the level of nesting may
differ on the elements.
The result should look like:

$A
[1] 1 2 3

$B
[1] "a" "b"

$A
[1] 1 2 3

$B
[1] "a" "b"

$A
[1] 1 2 3

$B
[1] "a" "b"

$A
[1] 1 2 3

$B
[1] "a" "b"

Any ideas?
TIA!
