    Thanks - I think this is reasonable.
    
    Could we revisit if we are adding `...` a lot in function definition just 
because the generic has it? Also those case we would be documenting `...` as 
"currently not used" or similar, correct (since the definition didn't have it 
before)?
    
    I agree this is likely the most compatible approach.

    @felixcheung<https://github.com/felixcheung> I agree that we shouldn't put 
real documentation to generics.R. I discussed with 
@junyangq<https://github.com/junyangq> offline and suggest the following:
    
    1) If we have to put "..." in setGeneric (e.g., in order to match existing 
sig or extra arguments in the function definition), then we also put ... at the 
end of function declaration and document "..." there. This is done similarly in 
R code base.
    2) If we don't need ..., then remove it from both setGeneric and function 
declaration.
    
    Does it sound good?
