Has anyone addressed this issue with RT? It seems an unusual
inconvenience, unless I'm - as often happens - completely missing
something..?

That's all well and good, but I'm having a devil of a time modifying
the data so it'll show up when I use 'show my-list'. Presumably I'd have
to modify 'subfunc's code, yes? Or could I re-define 'subfunc so that
'stuff refers to the 'data field in the object?
I'm sorry for being the total newbie - I've hobbied with REBOL for a
few years, but haven't gotten really deep into it. I'd like to make more
use of it, but I seem to have plans grander than my abilities, and I don't
often know where to go to figure it out. It's not that I want anyone to
write it for me, but I sometimes don't know where to begin learning, even.
Shoot, I still haven't even mastered parse - one of those "I keep meaning
to" things. So, I pray you'll all bear with me and my apparent density.
And, for the dozenth time: Thanks.
