Hi Pete,
Excellent idea. That will make things like table() work out-of-the-box
on GenomicRanges objects. I'll add that.
Thanks,
H.

Would people be interested in having this:
setMethod("as.character", "GenomicRanges",
function(x) {
paste0(seqnames(x), ":", start(x), "-", end(x))
})
?
I find myself doing that a lot to make unique names or for output that
goes to collaborators. I suppose we might want to tack on the strand if it
isn't "*". I have some code for going the other direction too, if there is
interest.
Pete
